Bid to bring back sewing lessons in scholl
HOBBYCRAFT Altrincham is asking customers to sign a petition to bring back sewing in schools following a recent poll which showed that 90 per cent of people would like to see sewing return.
The store is even offering a ‘try before you buy’ on sewing machines throughout series two of the Great British Sewing Bee programme.
To join the petition, visit www.change.org/en-GB/petitions/british-government-put-sewing-back-on-the-national-curriculum.
