Bring your school uniforms back to life at our casual repair session! Whether it’s a torn hem, missing button, or worn-out patch, we’re here to help you fix it with a little creativity and some hands-on support. This relaxed drop-in event is all about learning practical skills in a friendly, stress-free environment.

Our friendly sewing helpers will show you the basics of simple repairs, from stitching to patching, and offer helpful tips for fixing all those little uniform mishaps. Not only will you leave with mended clothes, but you’ll also experience the satisfying, rewarding feeling of doing it yourself.

No sewing experience is needed – just bring your uniform and a desire to learn! Plus, enjoy a chance to chat, unwind, and share the joy of repair with others. Join us and take home not just a fixed uniform, but a new skill you can use again and again!

- any school uniform items in need of repair

What’s included:
