Come along and learn new skills to help you care and repair for your favourite clothing.
Join ACS Clothing for a demonstration of mend and repair skills. We want to help you to get more value from your clothing and save it from going to landfill waste.
You are welcome to bring a garment for repair, that requires a common mending technique; like sewing a button or fixing a hem. Where it can't be repaired during the workshop you will be given tips for its repair.
The event is being held at David Livingstone Birthplace, 165 Station Road, Blantyre, G72 9BX.
