Lend and Mend Hub Activities
As part of a project with The Scottish Library & Information Council, Central Library has recently launched its ‘Lend and Mend Hub’, located in the Media Centre.
The hub features six sewing machines and an overlocker that will help the local community to repair, reuse, and upcycle everyday items, with free access for everyone to keep items in use for longer, rather than them being thrown away.
The team from Repair What You Wear Aberdeen are hosting a series of events within the Hub. For more information on these sessions, visit the Lend and Mend webpage.
