#MENDITMAY 2025

Each year we get our community mending in May. What’s the ask? Mend one item in the month of May to save it from landfill. This is a digital campaign that takes place on Instagram primarily, but also through in-person workshops too! Keep an eye on our Community Events page for something on near you.

…IT’S COMPETITION TIME!

New for 2025: we’ve turned it into a competition. We’ve got 5 categories and 5 chances to win a little prize to say well done!

When you upload your images to Instagram, tell us the story of your mend and which category you’d like it to be considered for.

- Best First-Time Mend

- Best Invisible Mend

- Most Creative Mend

- Best Collaborative Mend

- Most Inspiring Story

HOW DOES IT WORK?

For #MenditMay we spend the whole month on our social channels focusing on the power of repair. Whether you’re a beginner of an expert… Here’s how to get involved:

- Start by getting those needles out!

- Throughout the process, or once you’re finished, take pics or videos of the brilliant work you’ve done, no matter how it comes out.

- Post your pics to Instagram, tag us and add the hashtag #MenditMay

That’s it! We’ll be re-sharing and celebrating everyone’s efforts. And for this year…
