Your teacher
Rethrindle CIC is a social enterprise run by Meret and Lisa. Our mission is to upskill Bristol in sewing and mending and promote a creative approach to caring for your clothes. We are female-run, queer and neurodivergent, which informs our practices and workshops. We run the Slow Fashion Studio, a workshop space, reclaim shop and repair studio based in Sparks, Bristol. We host clothing repair and upcycling workshops and offer repair and alteration services alongside our shop selling reclaimed fabrics and haberdashery.In our workshops, our focus lies on letting your creativity roam free, helping you engage with your clothes differently and, of course, sharing with you our skills and many years of experience in sewing and mending. Meret started Rethrindle in 2023. She has been sewing since she was a teenager and has a degree in fashion design and a master's in social entrepreneurship. Rather than creating her own fashion brand and producing clothes, Meret decided that she wanted to share her skills locally and encourage mending and creativity. In 2025, she was joined by Lisa, founder of the Brand Rebel Patch, and together they aim to create an inclusive space for the Bristol community to learn, create and inspire one another. Between the two of them, they have upskilled over 400 people in mending and sewing and have gained and passed on a variety of textile skills.
