We are getting closer to setting up a New Plymouth version of Upsewing!
What we need now, for Hāwera and Ngāmotu (New Plymouth), is more sewing machines. If you have a machine you would like to donate to us, please get in touch.
We don't mind if it's a bit dusty or has a known issue but please don't dump your rusty, hard to use machines on us! We use these machines to teach children and adults how to sew so they need to be easy to use and care for. We can get them serviced if it's been a while since they've been used though.
You will receive 6 Hours per machine, 10 hours for an overlocker.
