When we put a batten through the pocket we took it to our local sailmakers which is Bristol Sails and they just stitched a new piece of material same as the batten pocket over the hole and it worked.
I would say any sailmaker would do this for a reasonable price

We'll see you at Bewl then instead?!?!? A very similar venue to Chew Valley, but in East Sussex.
