Sew-cial Club

Applications for the Sew-cial Club are now open until 14 Sep (Sun)!

Co-created with our long-standing impact partner INNOTIER for two years, students have upcycled unused antimicrobial Ionic+™ fabrics into meaningful products tailored for street cleaners, wheelchair users, and older people. As we enter our third year, Sew-cial Club will continue to empower students to apply creative problem-solving, a user-centric approach, and collaborative innovation to develop products that address the real needs of these underserved members of our community. Join the Sew-cial Club - where creativity meets care! 

What you will gain:

• Powerful Design Skills: Explore design thinking through empathy and user-centered approaches to product development.
• Hands-On Craftsmanship: Learn machine sewing, paper pattern-making, and prototyping techniques to bring ideas to life.
• Production Line Experience: Gain practical experience from concept creation to product production, packaging, and delivery to real users.
• Sustainability in Action: Collaborate with like-minded peers to upcycle and repurpose unused antimicrobial fabrics into meaningful products.
• CV Enrichment: Showcase your creativity, problem-solving, and ability to deliver a product from concept to reality — a valuable highlight for future opportunities.
