Making Space were thrilled to deliver the Make New & Mend project in 2022/23.

Funded by Hampshire County Council’s Waste Prevention Fund, the project prevented household waste through a series of ‘make new and mend’ inspired workshops. 

The sessions taught participants inventive and clever ways to repurpose, upcycle and mend household items to prevent them from going to waste. Those attending learnt new creative skills and gained knowledge and confidence. Rather than a ‘repair cafe’ format, we taught the techniques so participants could do it themselves and pass those skills on!
