Information
The Last Repair Café for 2024!
Do you have broken items sitting around your house that, with a simple repair, could be given a new lease on life? Bring them along to the Repair Café and discover how you can get involved
Each year, tons of household items end up in landfill, simply because they are broken. Repair Cafés try to fix broken items so they can continue to be used for years to come.
At the healthAbility Repair Café, our skilled repairers will try to repair your broken item and where possible show you how these types of repairs are done, so you can learn new skills and share this knowledge with others. While you're there, you can enjoy a cuppa and chat with others in a relaxed, social environment.
