OSWESTRY REPAIR CAFE
Hello Everyone
Oswestry & Borders Repair Cafe will be back in Oswestry Memorial Hall on Saturday September 13th 12 - 3 pm.
You can help us by booking your item in beforehand, so we know which fixperts to invite and what tools they need to bring. (Bookings by Sunday September 7th please).
Joining us this time we have the wonderful sustainable fashion project
'WITH LOVE FROM...'. Lizzie has created a shared wardrobe of occasion-wear, beautiful party clothing, footwear and accessories, based in Oswestry Library, which can be borrowed, for free, just the same as you might borrow books. They are on a mission to reduce the environmental and ethical impact of fashion through the promotion of better choices, encouraging people to slow down their shopping habits and instead repair, re-wear, share and care for clothing that already exists.
If you'd like to find out more, 'With Love From...' volunteers will be at the Memorial Hall on Saturday September 13th, and with the help of our fantastic sewing fixperts, we hope to repair some of their tired and damaged items.
For more information visit www.withlovefrom.org.uk, or email: hello@withlovefrom.org.uk
Also, from September 3rd, the Midweek Mend drop-in sessions will be back at the Climate Action Hub, 36 Bailey St. Oswestry - Wednesdays 11 - 2pm.
Looking forward to seeing you soon!
Best wishes
Elaine
