Come along with your mending pile and problem mends to one of Ealing Repair Café’s monthly gatherings for advice and guidance. Ealing Repair Café volunteers will be on hand to teach you how to repair your clothes and will bring along their sewing machine, so you can to try out alterations and mending seams.
Ealing Repair Café was set up to teach people to repair by using patching or darning techniques rather than discarding their clothes, helping create a circular economy for clothes and a move away from fast disposable fashion. Ealing Repair Café is part of Ealing Transition Initiative.
At Ealing Repair Café’s last gathering at Pitzhanger we mended: 5 pairs of trousers, 3 jumpers, 2 coats, 2 jackets, 1 scarf, 1 pair of trainers and 1 hand warmer. Join us in May to add your mends to our growing list!
Every Thursday, experience the enchanting ambience of Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery with FREE admission starting from 5 pm. Join us for a diverse range of events, including engaging art workshops, captivating concerts, serene yoga sessions, and insightful talks by acclaimed artists.
