Repair Cafe at Newton Central School Fia Fia Day

A Repair Café is a pop up event where people bring their broken and damaged belongings to be repaired by volunteer experts for no charge.

This Repair Café is being held at Newton Central School’s Fia Fia Day. It is part of the Sustainability Hub which encourages us to repair and recycle things rather than throw things away. So bring your damaged and broken things along on 10th April between 11am and 3pm and our local experts will do their best to repair them for free.

Get that old bike out of your garage and get it serviced or that puncture fixed!
What about that lamp that doesn’t go on; the toaster, kettle or radio?
Those pants you wish you could get taken up or dress let out?
That toy that needs stitching or glueing?
The laptop that you wish someone would take a look at?
The chair with a wobbly leg? The coffee table with the piece that needs screwing or nailing back in?

Here is your opportunity. It’s all part of a making a circular economy. And besides that it’s all good fun!

From past experience, about 70% of items are successfully repaired. If you are happy with your repair, donations/koha gratefully received to help fund future Repair Cafes.
