Stitch-Up CIC has teamed up with Freedom4Girls to offer a drop in sewing workshop. Help us make washable, reusable period products for the community. Join us for an afternoon of creativity and empowerment!

Freedom4Girls are a UK-registered charity fighting against period poverty. They work to support those who menstraute by challenging the stigmas, taboos and gender inequalities assoicated with menstrauation. They provide education, period products and promote product choice and support enviromentally and financially sustainable options.
