Meet our Repair Café team, see live demonstrations of clothing repairs and different techniques, chat about the project and find out about our new weekly Repair Café drop-ins and monthly upcycling workshops.

At the heart of the evening is our Clothes Swap – bring clothes you no longer wear and exchange them for something new-to-you, giving good clothes another life and refreshing your wardrobe without spending money. Alongside this, DJ PRI !! – founder of Messy and local DJ – will be playing funky, downtempo and global club beats in our bar (set from 6-9pm).

Then we’ve got a packed weekend of music from VMPR, Fizzle and Dearthworms, before we take a short break - we’ll be back from you from 16th Sept!
