Description

We are delighted to be returning to the Grand Arcade to run a Repair Cafe and carbon footprinting stall. This will be a one stop shop to get things fixed, calculate your carbon footprint and find out about local initiatives that will help you to reduce your impact on the environment.

We will be focussing on repairing electrical, electronic and mechanical items at this Repair Cafe. We will also keep a couple of slots for walk-ins on the day. Looking forward to getting some stuff fixed!

About the group

Cambridgeshire Repair Cafe Network

Repair Cafes are distinct from Restart Parties, but there is considerable overlap, and much to be gained from sharing information.  They are co-ordinated from the Netherlands (http://repaircafe.org), and are not in competition with Restart Parties (there's more than enough to fix for us both!)

Repair Cafes tend to be less hi-tech than Restart Parties, though we will tackle computers, laptops, tablets and phones when requested.  Repairs are always free, and a cafe (which charges modest prices) is associated with the event, to cater for those who are waiting to be seen.

Cambridge Carbon Footprint co-ordinates Repair Cafes in the Cambridge area. Learn more here: https://cambridgecarbonfootprint.org/repair-cafes/
