Toy Hospital
About this Event
Join us for a heartwarming and hands-on sustainable sewing session where we open the doors to our very own Toy Hospital, bringing together care, creativity, and practical skills as we work to repair and revive well-loved soft toys in need of a little extra attention.
In this gentle and collaborative workshop, you’re invited to bring along a tired or “under-the-weather” teddy or soft toy from home to mend and refresh, or to roll up your sleeves and help us repair donated toys that have been sent in for a second life, from stitching seams and replacing stuffing to adding thoughtful finishing touches that restore their character and comfort.
This session is as much about connection as it is about making, offering a welcoming space to share skills, stories, and small acts of kindness, while reflecting on the value of repair, reuse, and the emotional significance held within everyday objects.
Participants of all
skill levels are warmly welcomed, whether you’re completely new to sewing or more experienced, and guidance will be available throughout, with basic tools and materials provided to support the process.
Disclaimer & Safety Notice
Our sustainable textile workshops involve the use of equipment and materials that may present hazards, including but not limited to:
- Sharp objects: scissors, needles, and pins
- Heat sources: irons, glue guns, and other heated equipment
Use of Equipment
Participants use all equipment and materials at their own risk. We will provide clear guidance on safe use and, where reasonable and appropriate, we will make reasonable adjustments to enable participation. However, due to the inherent nature of textile work, reasonable adjustments may affect the final quality or appearance of your finished item.
Right to Withdraw from Activity
We reserve the right to request that a participant ceases use of equipment if we reasonably determine that they are unable to safely operate the tools, or if no reasonable adjustments can be implemented to enable safe participation. This decision is made in the interests of health and safety for all participants. We will not require participation in activities where suitable reasonable adjustments are refused by the participant.
Carers and Support
Carers and support persons are welcome to attend our workshops. If you plan to attend with a carer, or if you require any reasonable adjustments due to disability, health conditions, or other access requirements, we ask that you contact us before booking to discuss your needs. This allows us to plan appropriately and ensure we can provide the support you require.
