Repair Workshop in Braunschweig: Repairing clothes, conserving resources, and being creative together
A small hole, a loose hem, or a piece of clothing with history: The Repair Workshop of the MitMachEck of the Bürgerstiftung Braunschweig focuses on sustainable repairs on October 7, 2026. From 10:00 to 12:00, visitors will receive practical tips, inspiration, and support in mending their clothes.
Patch instead of throw away
The Repair Workshop combines craftsmanship with active climate protection. Repairing textiles extends their lifespan, saves money, and conserves resources. Thus, a damaged favorite piece becomes a wearable companion again, and a repair is a meaningful contribution against textile waste.
Practical help for personal clothing items
Sewing machines and materials will be available on site. The organizers will show how repairs can succeed and provide tips for handling clothes. No registration is necessary: interested individuals should simply bring the clothing items they wish to repair.
Sustainable event experience at MitMachEck
The MitMachEck of the Bürgerstiftung Braunschweig creates space for meetings, courses, workshops, and civic engagement.

Organization and target audience
As a regular participatory offering, the event is aimed at people who want to use clothing more consciously, try sewing, or share repair knowledge. The format is suitable for beginners as well as experienced hobby sewers. Participation is free, donations are welcome.
Conclusion: Sustainability that impacts daily life
