About our cause
Sew Positive helps people in Cambridgeshire who face barriers like social isolation, discrimination, poverty and mental health issues to improve our communities through sewing, upcycling and mending. We run social prescribing courses via the NHS, and partner with CPSL Mind and other charities.
People like Neil, on our 'Sew Basic' course, said "I've only just started attending Sew Positive, and just venturing out of the home after being isolated, hence I have anxiety about driving at night. It's a huge step for me, especially that I was able to attend by myself. It's the first club I've attended in 10 years, other than mental health sessions."
Roz told us he has struggled with friends and socialising before he came to our 'Men's Hems' service "It's one of the most positive things that have happened in a long time, and gives me a sense of belonging and inclusion."
Another participant 'L' told us "Being part of the group has been special. Different people from different places coming together, brought together by a common interest and a brokenness that began to feel like not such a shameful and terrible thing. We’ve seen and created but we’ve also talked about health issues and the difficulties of raising neurodiverse and SEND kids - helping ourselves and each other."
"As a result of Sew Positive, I feel more connected to the world around me, the nature around me, with people and with me - the creative me who has a voice and can do things."
