Events

Join PLANT CIC for our Wildlife Gardening Club.

For this session we’ll be joined by the wonderful Rupert Adams, Chair of Cheshire and The Wirral Branch of Butterfly Conservation, to learn all about the urban butterflies of Manchester and how to attract them to breed and feed in your garden.

A yarn club guided by the moon and seasons. Bring your current project and a notebook. All yarn crafts and levels welcome!

Altogether Otherwise is a place where things always happen. Where making, doing, and shared endeavour are all part of the fun. We run workshops, create things, and keep the Hobby House buzzing with activity. No end goals, no pressure, just a space to tinker, try, and enjoy the simple joy of doing.

In this weekly yoga club we'll be exploring all elements of Yoga from the physical practice & breath to meditation, philosophy & beyond.

All levels of experience are welcome.

Bring a mat & wear something comfy. Every week at Altogether Otherwise.

Come along every Tuesday evening to potter around in our community garden.

Anything gardening related - you name it, we probably do it.

Mending used to be second nature - most homes had a tin of buttons, needles, and thread ready for repairs. Now, a missing button or worn-out sock often means the end of a garment.

Mending Club brings those lost skills back. It’s a friendly, free space to slow down, learn or practice mending, and share stories stitched into our clothes. Bring along the jeans you’ve worn to death, your moth-eaten jumper, or socks with holes - together we’ll give them new life.

No experience needed - whether you’re a seasoned stitcher or can’t thread a needle, you’re welcome. Every other Tuesday at Altogether Otherwise, we gather to darn, patch, stitch, and mend. Tools and materials are provided, and inspiration is always on hand.

Expect a casual social environment where we can share what we’re currently working on, ask for advice and chat. We’re all about sharing knowledge and skills, so if you’re not sure how to go about a particular mend, feel free to ask! If you don’t have access to all the supplies you might need, a range of needles and materials will be supplied. If you’re not sure what you may need for a particular mend, check out the @manchestermendingclub Instagram for more inspiration.
