Sewing and alterations: a council program

The problem. Sewing skills go unused at home. Who it helps. A council or library team hosting it, helping hobbyists with an idea they want to test. What you start with. A sewing machine and basic skills. What is delivered. A small range or service is priced and offered to a handful of people. A community officer hosts it with local partners and follows progress. How progress is known. Orders taken and time per item are recorded. A short summary is shared with the council, with names and personal details left out. Main purpose. The main purpose is a pathway to work, training or a first venture for the people taking part. Honest limits. Time per item can make pricing hard. Ownership of your idea stays with you, and no job, funding or contract is promised. Track record. This is a new idea built on work Deals Colony has already documented. It has not been run yet.
