Repair Café (with Brunswick Tool Library) – 19 Nov

Don’t fall into the consumerist trap of ‘oh I’ll just buy another one’!
Take up your ‘right to repair’ and learn from our volunteers about how you can refresh, repair or upcycle your stuff.

Come along to our Repair Café where skilled volunteers will gather at MCI help you diagnose your fix and support you to mend and restore your things.

The event is free but donations towards our not-for-profit organisations are totally welcome. As are coffees and treats!

Work with volunteers as they help you diagnose the problem and learn as you work to repair the item together. Our volunteers can help you fix everything from tattered clothes to busted household appliances.

We supply the tools. All you need to bring is your thing for repair and any spare parts that you might require to fix your item (such as zippers, power cords, hinges, etc.).

We’ll have helpers to fix clothing, bikes, electrical appliances and even pieces of furniture.

This Repair Café won’t be ticketed so no bookings required but do email us at maker.community.inc@gmail.com if you have something unusual.

Just show up some time between 11am and 2pm with your items and grab a number.
