Repair cafés empower people to fix broken ‘things’ by providing the tools/materials to restore them, assisted by volunteers with a range of practical skills. It’s an opportunity for makers and tinkerers to get together and render their services to the community, while promoting a circular economy.
Excessive consumerism, increasingly complex products, and anti-consumer design practices like planned obsolescence, have contributed to a generational throwaway culture. Extending a product’s life reduces landfill waste, preserves resources, and reduces CO2 emissions, benefiting the environment and saving consumers money.
Anyone! If you have a repair project that meets our criteria, we’d love to help. Engineers, crafters and tinkerers... we need you! This is a great opportunity for those looking to enhance their practical skillset.
No ticket required, just come along!
