About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

Join us at our free darning repair workshop to breathe new life into your clothes!

This beginner-friendly workshop will be led by Belen Fernandez, a Textile Design student at the University of Arts London, who will guide you through the traditional visible mending technique where you'll stitch, patch up, and play with colour and texture to mend your clothes.

To take part, please bring along an item of knitwear or clothing from your wardrobe that you would like to repair. This workshop is suitable for beginners and we will provide all the materials you need.

Organized by

Traid is a UK charity on a mission to change fashion for the better. Keeping clothes in use for longer is at the core of our work. We do this by providing convenient ways for the public to reuse clothes while delivering education to people of all ages to raise awareness of the powerful environmental and social benefits of reducing our clothing footprint.

Traid completes the circle by committing the funds raised to global projects benefiting the people and places where our clothes are made. The work we support aims to improve environmental and social outcomes, right now Traid is supporting cotton farmers, garment workers and their children across the world to make fashion fairer for everyone.
