Event Overview
We do functional repairs on portable household items for free! Find us at various locations across the city on the 1st Saturday of the month, 11am-3.30pm.
This month we are at Railworld.
There is a limit to what we will attempt to fix; our slots are 45 minutes long. We do functional repairs of household items (we are not The Repair Shop from TV!). We can look at things like:
• Simple clothes repairs like zips and tears
• Small electrical appliances like radios and vacuum cleaners
• Tools that need sharpening or repairing.
Depending on the location and volunteer availability, we might also be able to do basic bike repairs and maintenance, fix toys, or do simple woodwork repairs on portable furniture.
If it can’t be carried in, we can’t fix it! We cannot fix large items such washing machines, and fridges, cars, or large TVs. We also don’t do specialist repairs for things like mobile phones, or complicated restoration projects on furniture.
We only allow booking of ONE ITEM per person per repair café, this is to give as many people as possible a chance to use this opportunity. Multiple items may be considered on the day, but this cannot be guaranteed.
