The Restart Project helps people learn how to repair their broken electronics, and rethink how they consume them in the first place.
Find out more about usYou’re invited to a Restart Party!
Come to one of our free community repair events, where our volunteer fixers will help you learn how to repair your broken or slow devices - and tackle the growing mountain of e-waste.
Every week, we produce a podcast about rescuing and repairing the electronics we use everyday.
Listen here, or tune in live the second Tuesday of the month at 5pm on London’s Resonance FM.
Together with our growing network, we collect and share data on the things we repair, and use it to help us demand better, more sustainable products.

Our web app allows members of the repair community to log their fixes and to learn about the social and environmental impact of their work.
We collect data on repair from our community events and we use the data to provide insights into the devices we see.
We’re sparking repair activity in schools around the world.
Our hands-on programme helps secondary schools build repair into their curriculum, to create a new generation of fixers.
Read about our first programme at Archer Academy, in London.
Restart is a people-powered project. Here's what we're up to:
After summer holidays in August, we are back on Restart Radio. We now have a new slot with Resonance 104.4FM at 5pm on the second Tuesday of each month. We will also keep producing a monthly podcast with Dave Pickering, which will be published on our website.
Restarters.net combines our tool for organising events and measuring their impact (AKA the Fixometer) with our wiki and a new discussion forum. This is the first global space for fixer volunteers to join with event hosts, and spread community repair.
