Ealing Repair Cafe: Clothes

This information was added on 23/02/2024 and last updated on: 29/01/2026

Ealing Repair café encourages the mending of clothes and textiles. Come along to one of our sessions listed under Whats on with your clothes mending pile and problem mends to our regular gatherings around Ealing and Acton. We can teach you how to mend your clothes and give advice and guidance to mend your clothes. All levels of sewing welcome, from beginners to advance, there’s always something new to learn or share. Our volunteers will be on hand to teach you on how to repair your clothes. You can pick up one of our darning and patching guides. We ask for a small donation to cover costs and equipment, a suggested donation of £4 per session, so please contribute to our Collectiv online or at our sessions.

We bring along our sewing machines to some sessions when the location allow it and they can be used for suitable mends. If you are looking for sewing machine lessons, we recommend these local lessons.

We want more people mending, valuing and wearing their clothes for longer and to move away from fast disposable fashion and make the world a sustainable happy place to live in.
