We’re running Repair Cafés where people can drop in to learn how to mend and repair their items. By maintaining our clothes, electronics and items, we are preventing waste from going into landfills and contributing a more circular and sustainable economy.
We are looking for volunteers who are knowledgeable about repairing electronics and mending clothes. You could be good with gadgets, know your way around a broken toaster or handy with pulling apart a computer.
Maybe you're handy with a sewing machine, know how to darn a sock or are a wizz at upcycling!
