May Repair Cafe

At our monthly events volunteers donate their time to help you repair your items.

If you know the specific part needed to repair your item, we ask that you bring it along. Please ensure you bring all the parts (plugs etc) and clean out crumbs and empty water before bringing your items in.

There will be wonderful flat whites and baking to help fund the venue hire.

We're happy to help you learn how to repair. We are not repair professionals, Repair Cafes are a community self-repair space. Attending means that you take responsibility for your own item.

Repair skills available this month:
kintsugi - ceramic/greenstone, sewing, heavy-duty sewing, tool and knife sharpening, electrical repair, general repair, wood working, teddy surgery

We will give most repairs a try, come in and talk to our repairers to see what they can do.
