Description
Do you have small electrical, mechanical, household items, textiles and toys that need fixing? Bring it along and one of our volunteer fixers will try to fix it for you. 1 item per person please.
You can bring any small household electrical item (e.g., kettle, radio, hifi, lamp, etc.). Please don't bring white goods or anything you can't carry. You can also bring toys, mechanical items and small leather items. We probably won't have spare parts if they are needed, but hopefully will be able to recommend what is needed. You can bring any broken item that needs gluing - e.g. china, plastic toys etc. We will have various kinds of glue such as araldite, super glue etc. You can bring clothes or textiles - we can help with buttons, simple patches, minor repairs
We cannot fix the following items: white goods, CRTs, any safety related item (smoke alarm etc.), or weapons of any kind. If you are unsure, please contact us. We can’t guarantee we can fix everything, but we will have a go.
We will also have a selection of lovely handmade cards, journals and notebooks for sale. Refreshments available.
The repairs are free but donations towards costs will be gratefully received. If you are interested in helping at the event either as a mender or just as importantly, helping with booking in the items, ensuring good flow or helping to serve refreshments please contact Linda on 07973 788339.
