Description

At the Waterside Repair Café everything centres on making repairs. Volunteer repairers will be available to help make all possible repairs for a small donation. Tools and materials will also be on hand. People visiting the Repair Café will bring along their broken items from home. Toasters, lamps, hair dryers, clothes, bikes, toys, crockery... any small item that is broken is welcome. The Repair Café specialists almost always have the know-how and should they be unable to make the repair they will help you find someone locally who can.

Waterside Repair Cafe

Located just outside of the New Forest, Waterside Repair Cafe aims to reduce waste and support local people to repair over disposal. Linking to a local food waste programme, refreshments are provided from supermarket waste. This also allows us to offer food that would otherwise go to waste to our Repair Cafe visitors.
