Creativity with Community

Stitches in Time is an community arts and education charity. We support our local community through arts, to increase learning, community well-being, social change & empowerment. We run regular programmes for survivors of domestic violence, long-term unemployed women, families living in poverty, elders facing isolation, survivors of trafficking, for children in areas of

deprivation, and for women with English as a second language. People’s ambitions and aspirations at the heart of our projects. We design and facilitate individual workshops, through to long-term projects and big community events. We run a range of textile, sewing and creative workshops, taught by our professional team of artists. Discover new skills, from dressmaking to embroidery, machining to silk painting, everyone comes away with something beautiful they’ve made themselves.

🎊Join us for a Ceilidh to fundraise for Stitches in Time! 🎻🎶

🪩Scottish country dancing will be led by the fabulous Muckers!

💃No experience is necessary, the caller will walk you through the steps.

Along with many other charities, we are now faced with a dilemma. Funding sources are disappearing fast, which is affecting us very badly. All profits from this event will go towards supporting our work.

The band, staff and the building have donated the space, their time and their tunes to support this fundraiser, we just need you to buy a ticket, share the event and come and dance the night away!🍾🕺🏽🙌

Ticket link also in our bio!

A collaboration with Historic Royal Palaces, the independent charity that cares for the Tower of London, we created a tapestry that captures the contemporary relevance of the Tower for local people.

The tapestry, which will hang in St Thomas’ Tower, will reflect on themes including childhood, entertainment, religion and London as a place to live for both medieval society and Tower Hamlets residents today.

On display in the medieval palace in the Tower of London over summer and autumn.
