Learn new things, save money and do something for the environment
As an educational initiative, "Repair Cafés" seek to encourage visitors to acquire the skills required to recondition household items that need minor repairs, so as to reduce waste, new purchases and, consequently, our carbon footprint. From a financial point of view, repairing rather than buying also saves money. Beyond their practical utility, Repair Cafés are also places where people can meet, socialise and share their knowledge.
Dates, times and venues
Repair Cafés are held several times a year.
