Wearers Festival and Something™ present: The Menders Trade Café is about community, circular economy and the sustainable practice of mending and repairing. Volunteer London-based menders gathered at Truman’s Social Club on the 31st of October 2021 to repair the beloved clothes that the attendees brought to the event. As payment, they accepted goods or services in exchange! People came with their pals; chat and met local menders; watched the craft that involves repairing garments by hand; gave a longer life to their favourite items and had a drink, all on the same day!
