Can you spare a little time to share your crafty, creative or organising talents? Anō Anō is on a mission to create community connection and divert waste from landfill by mending, upcycling and repurposing discarded clothing/textiles and we need help with a variety of tasks to keep us on track.

Areas in particular we would love help with are .... Sorting incoming clothing and textiles, Mending/repairing clothing, Making upcycled or repurposed items for the Eco Centre shop (we also have number of projects that are started and need finishing, such as denim tool belts/aprons needing pockets added), Washing clothes/stain removal on otherwise good condition clothing, Running or hosting a workshop (especially if it involves making reuseable alternatives to single use plastic, however all workshop ideas are welcome) Sharing your knitting/sewing/crafty and creative skills with visitors wanting to learn, Help tidying our shelves and boxes of clothing and fabrics that get a bit disorderly after particularly busy sessions or workshops. In return we can offer you time credits, lots of gratitude, cups of tea/coffee, inspiration for creativity, possible assistance with any upcycling or repurposing projects of your own and the potential to meet some awesome people in our space.
