Do you have something that no longer works for you and needs fixing? Perhaps a radio on the blink, a jammed coffee machine, a torn pair of jeans, a broken favourite necklace, a bicycle or much loved toy in need of some care and attention?
Or maybe some knives, scissors, shears or secateurs that are too blunt to cut properly?
Well. Whatever you do, don’t bin it or them – come along to the Oundle Repair Cafe and we’ll do our best to fix it while you watch and perhaps even help!
Our next Repair Cafe, always held at Fletton House on Glapthorn Road between 2pm and 5pm, is on 20 April 2024. Simply email repaircafe@transitionoundle.org.uk, and we’ll get back to you.
What is a Repair Café?
Repair Cafés are community events that match people who need stuff fixed with people who like fixing things. The international repair café movement kicked off in Amsterdam, and has now grown to over a thousand worldwide, with more than 115 in Britain. They are completely non-commercial, and their aim is simply to encourage people to consider getting items repaired before throwing them out so as to reduce waste and extend a product’s use.
