Remade Month from 10:10

[marian farrell]

For the last few weeks, 10:10ers around the world have been building the skills and confidence to repair clothes, bikes, computers, and anything else that needs a bit of TLC to keep it at its best. Remade Month, our take on an idea developed in Brixton and Edinburgh, focused on sharing tips and resources around the 10:10 community to make our favourite things last longer, saving the extra cash and carbon that comes with having to replace things as soon as they go wrong. But don't worry if you missed anything first time round – we've put together a quick roundup of the best bits from Remade Month. Here goes... Features and resources • How to speed up a slow computer Get your PC running like new again with our beginners' guide ' • Sophie's mending masterclass Bring your old clothes back to life with a pro costume designer's top tips. • Video: bring your bike back to life Rescue your bike from the shed and get it riding like new again with Josh's simple post-Winter checkup. • Sugru: the fixer's secret weapon Inventor Jane Ní Dhulchaointigh explains why she loves repairing, and introduces us to her amazing creation. • 10 tricks to make clothes last longer Use these tips to keep your favourite clothes looking new for longer. • Workshops and events around the world From Denmark to Dhaka, Remade month was packed full of 10:10-themed repair workshops.
