Mountsorrel Repair Cafe (free service)

What is the MMCV Repair Café?

The MMC Repair Café is a free community event, managed by the Fix it Group 23 and located at the MMC Café, focused on repairing things. You can bring a broken household item to the café where a volunteer will assess the item and will either fix it - whilst your grab a coffee and cake in the café - or will help you make a plan for how and where to get the item fixed. '


What can you repair?

We fix small electrical items like toasters, kettles, radios, vacuum cleaners and hi-fis. Most of these items can be fixed using replacement parts we carry or just some glue! We fix clothes, soft toys and anything else that either a needle or thread or a sewing machine can work on. We fix a variety of toys, clocks and small items of furniture. Sometimes we can’t fix things... and sometimes, if items look fragile, we won’t try but we’re always happy to offer advice or try and help you find a professional repairer.


What should I bring?

Bring your broken item! Please make sure you have all the parts and it is clean. If your item is large then you can bring us a photograph or show us an image on a device but please make sure you can see the fault on the image.
