Eleanor and Sarah are on hand to help you repair and upcycle your old or damaged clothes. Please book a free ticket to confirm your attendance, as we may not have space for you otherwise.
If you bring along your own clothes to work on, we can offer advice and ideas on how you can repair or alter them. If you would just like to have a go at some simple techniques, we have spare fabrics so you can practice on those first. The Create Place is set up with sewing machines and basic sewing equipment to get you started. We're not able to provide all materials so if there are any extra trims or fabrics you specifically want to use please bring these along too.
We are a friendly and inclusive group, we invite everyone to share any ideas they may have with others on how we can mend and refashion clothes to combat textile waste.
We also have a small amount of 'Donation-Only' tickets available, your donation helps us to continue running these workshops for free so we can support everyone to mend their clothes, regardless of their financial income.
We are so pleased that we have been given a grant from the National Lottery Community Fund to fund these workshops meaning we can keep these workshops free to attend.
