Description

NOTE: 6pmUTC/ 7pm UK/ 8pm CEST.

Stuck at home with broken stuff? Want to stop a virus on your computer without spreading one in person? We still want to support you repairing on Sundays so we will run a one hour Q&A session to answer any questions, give tips or simply chat about repair. We have the capability to have breakout rooms so you can talk with a repairer. As usual, we can help you, even in a variety of languages. Just let us know beforehand what you are bringing and if you have a language request by using the check in form http://bit.ly/fixitcheckin

We're in Sweden but run our events in English and Swedish most of the time. We are using Zoom, so can split groups into breakout rooms based on types of repair and preferred languages. Repairers from other groups also welcome - even better if you give us a heads up on this page (RSVP) or the Fixit Clinic sign up: http://bit.ly/fixitcoachsignup

About the group

Group avatar

Repair Cafe Malmö

We have events mostly on Sunday afternoons at STPLN in Western Harbour, Garaget in Sofielund or other pop-up locations around Malmö. Like Restart, our aim is to fix with you, share knowledge, and learn more about repairing different devices. We focus right now primarily on electronics repair, but there are also general tools and sewing machines available to try any kind of repair!  

Fixa och fika med oss! Vårt mål är att sänka tröskeln för att reparera trasig elektronik och att sprida kunskap för att minska elektronikavfallet.

You have skills (or want to learn)?
We are a loose community of people that wants to help reduce the amount of electronic waste, love to fix things and help others repair. There are a lot of things that we can learn from each other and we hope to have more helping hands, no matter what your skills are. Maybe you simply like to help others and see their joy when the toaster works again, you love to organise fun events, or are a retired electrician, or you are looking to learn more about repairing. Send a message to [email protected] or drop by an event!
