World Oceans Day

Join us for a vibrant and imaginative sustainable sewing session inspired by the beauty and diversity of our oceans, as we come together to celebrate World Oceans Day by creating underwater-themed crafts from surplus and reclaimed materials.

In this relaxed, hands-on workshop, we’ll be making playful sea creatures such as jellyfish, fish, and other ocean-inspired creations, transforming fabric scraps, packaging, and donated materials into colourful pieces that spark conversation about sustainability and marine conservation; it’s a joyful and accessible way to explore creativity while reflecting on our connection to the sea.

All materials will be provided, though you are welcome to bring along any surplus craft supplies you’d like to incorporate into your work, and participants are invited to experiment freely while receiving gentle guidance in simple sewing and assembling techniques suitable for all experience levels.

This session is perfect for beginners, and anyone looking to engage in mindful making within a friendly and supportive environment, where creativity flows easily and sustainability remains at the heart of everything we do.

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.
