Volunteers at a Restart Party fixing devices, cropped on hands

Description

Toaster being problematic? Mobile phone giving you grief? Blender driving you mad? Laptop playing up?

Bring it, we'll help you fix it!

Free drop-in repair session for electrical goods (one electrical item per person, and no microwaves please!

A repair party is a place for people who like fixing or need things fixing - and together they work to bring poorly electronics back to life.

Disclaimer: We're happy to help you learn how to repair. We are not repair professionals, and repair parties are a community self-repair space. Attending means that you take responsibility for your own gadget. Please back up your data.


Please note that if we're too busy, we'll stop accepting new fixes in the last hour (3-4pm) so please come as early as possible. 

For more details search for 'Crystal Palace Fixers' on Facebook, or see the Library of Things Events Calendar.
