Recent reviews of Repair Day Experience at Reverse Garbage
- 5/5 from Susan Roberts, attended Oct 2026: • Repair Day Experience - 16.10.26. • I was able to find-out how best to mend a skirt. Because I wasn't sure how to approach its mending, a long-neglected skirt now has another whirl at life! I now have another method in my skill-set for mending tricky spots of a garment. • Host was generous with time, energy, knowledge, & was keen to listen to understand our 'stories' along the journey of upcycling, mending, re-purposing. Advice & encouragement for how to go about the repair I was wanting was given willingly & thoughtfully. • Friendly atmosphere for sharing of ideas & know-how with other participants. Through today's encounters I have found out about other repair/mend & recycling organisations that I am keen to investigate. • Thank you for the opportunity to come along. I really enjoyed my time.
- 5/5 from Sharyn Corboy, attended Oct 2026: Sewing repair workshop - very welcoming, inclusive, I felt part of something with like minded people. Thank you very much, hopefully I can play with work hours to attend your monthly Monday sewing mornings
