Description

Note on times: Event is 20:00 CEST/ 19:00 UK/ 11:00 PDT

GOT SOMETHING BROKEN? In addition to “carry-in items” the virtual format means we can look at big things like washing machines, doors, furniture and farm equipment now. Help us out by letting us know what you are bringing by registering in advance http://bit.ly/fixitcheckin
RESTARTERS, FIXERS, OTHERS: Any community repairers (or wannabe repairers, "fixing families") in the world are heartily welcome to help fix (or just observe). You're also welcome to present things from your local community. RSVP to this event or sign up in advance at http://bit.ly/fixitcoachsignup.

We will start with a quick introduction of the different items to repair and some initial ideas on how to go about the fix. Then we will have the option to join breakout rooms to continue to fix the different items. We also have the ability to support in different languages, but give us a heads up beforehand!

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!
