Classes are currently held at The Rugby Eco Hub at 43 Clifton Road. Access to the hub and its car park is from the top of Bath Street. The venue is fully accessible with no steps, power assisted doors and accessible toilet facilities.

Please note that due to the uncertainty of The Rugby Eco Hub being able to continue in it's current location, we are currently looking for a new venue which offers all of the same facilities that we currently have.

We try to break down barriers to learning, which is why if you have a carer or assistant whose support you will need to participate in this group, they are welcome to attend with you free of charge.

Sewing machines can be provided for you to use, but you are welcome to bring your own if you wish. By bringing your own sewing machine, you confirm that it is in full working order with no defects. 

A minimum number of 6 attendees is required for this event to take place.
