Makers HQ is a unique collaboration between Plymouth College of Art, Millfields Trust and the local Stonehouse community to reignite fashion and textiles manufacturing in Plymouth.

Its vision is to create jobs and provide work opportunities through a sampling studio. All profits from this are reinvested into the provision of training and education programmes. These focus on engaging and up-skilling the local community to support progression into education and employment within the fashion and textiles sector.

The training studio offers a diverse range of qualifications from entry level short courses to higher level apprenticeship programmes. Find out more here.

Sampling studio services include: pattern drafting, single samples, manual and digital pattern drafting and grading, and short production runs. For more information click here.
