An exciting week of events focussing on climate change. Our wide range of activities gives people of all ages the chance to learn the facts, gain some new skills and become more aware of their impact on the planet. Scroll down to view the full calendar of events and click on each one for more info.
Please note that booking is essential for some workshops.
Join us during our regular Mending Monday session with a particular focus on learning new stitches. These stitches will be your super power when it comes to mending items of clothing and household textiles - as they say ‘A stitch in time saves nine!’
As part of our Climate Week celebrations, join us for a Sewing Bee inspired transformation challenge! Using a selection of scrap materials, you will be tasked with making a wearable piece of clothing or an accessory in just 5 hours. You’ll have technical support from Anna, but the design is completely up to you.
Join Emma for a couple of hours of learning how to cover stains, rips and blemishes on your clothing!
There will be a range of stitching patterns to try. All materials are provided along with light refreshments. Please bring with you the garment or garments you wish to mend/decorate.
Enjoy a screening of Fashion Reimagined, followed by a discussion about the film. Tea and coffee are provided.
This event is funded by D&G Climate Hub so tickets are free to you, however there is an option to add a donation which will help to fund our community work.
Drop-in session with advice and information on all things climate change. Pop in for a cuppa and leave with your questions answered! We’ll also be handing out climate packs with information and materials to take home.
