This Earth Day, learn how to extend the lifespan of your favourite fashion pieces with four essential mending techniques: hemming, buttons, blanket and Sashiko stitching. In this hands-on session, you’ll practice these new skills to apply visible repairs to your own clothing - transforming stains or holes into decorative features.

You’re welcome to come empty‑handed, but feel free to bring an item of clothing if you’d like to practice on something of your own.

We kindly ask for a £10 deposit to secure your spot – you’ll receive a refund when you attend, or if you cancel your ticket at least 48 hours before the event takes place. If not, your deposit will be donated to one of our charity partners, so, it’s win-win!

*Please note that filming/photography may be taking place on site for the duration of this event for promotional and archival purposes. The photographs and recordings made are likely to appear on our website. If you would prefer not to be photographed please let the Fora team know on arrival to the event.
