Clothing retailer Primark is running free repair shops at its York branch in Coppergate from 10:30am. to 3:30pm.
On Tuesday the 14th of November, the clothing retailer Primark will host three separate workshops presented by fashion designer Lorraine Mitchell.
From 10am to 11.30am is a Sew and Create workshop looking at sewing, including attaching buttons and zips. Then from 12 until 1.30 pm, there is a workshop all about zips called Get to Grips with Zips. And finally, from 2 pm until 3.30 pm there is an Upcycle and Relove workshop, where you can learn about altering, mending and updating clothing you already have and love.
The retailer says the repair workshops are part of its commitment to be a more sustainable business. More than 100 events have taken place worldwide to empower people to repair and re-wear their clothes.
