Past Events and Activities 

Come and join our social sewing community at the Preloved Studio. We’re tackling textiles waste by growing our sewing skills to repair our loved clothing items and making new items to love from scrap and donated fabrics.

Lets celebrate what makes Canons House a special place! We invite you to join us at the SHARING SPACE.

Join Sakina O’Neill of RE-RUNN for a hands-on, two-part workshop exploring visible mending. In Part 1, create an embroidered patch from preloved fabrics, then use it in Part 2 to repair or upcycle your clothes. No experience needed – just bring your curiosity! (£5 donation per workshop)
