Repair Cafés reduce pressure on the planet by supporting a repair, reuse or re-purpose life cycle. Our Repair Café Events aim to recreate a culture of "repair not replace" as an experienced volunteer shares their skills and helps you to repair your items. Think the Repair Shop, as seen on tv.
Please bring in your broken items to be repaired for free or koha. items could include: clothing, bicycles, chairs, jewellery, toasters, lawn mowers, sewing machines, clocks, toys. You name it, we can probably fix it!
A cafe with tea, coffee and snacks will also be onsite. Please bring cash.
Our purpose is:
- To educate the public about the importance and viability of repairing, recycling, reusing, upcycling and otherwise extending the useful life of items which might otherwise be disposed of into landfill.
- To educate the public as to the technical skills necessary to achieve the above purpose.
- To alleviate poverty by assisting the public to extend the life of items that would otherwise need to be replaced.
- To provide access to tools, equipment, skills and expert knowledge to support these purposes.
