What items can we repair?

General repair

Unsure why your item is not working? We PAT test items and keep a lookout for common faults like blown fuses and loose wires.

Clothing & textiles

From torn seams to damaged fabrics, we’ll restore your clothing and ensuring you’re wearing your favourite outfits for longer.

Tech & electronics

Bring your electronics to us for repair, we’ll assess the damage, help you find what parts to order, and fix the device for you.

Appliances

We’ll repair small appliances that you can carry to our repair cafes (i.e., kettles). We do not offer repairs for large appliances.

Toys & ornaments

We fix all sorts of toys, including battery powered items and teddies. You can also bring ornaments, figurines, and vases.

Jewellery

Bring your broken jewellery to us, we can replace clasps, add links, and other essential jewellery repairs.

FAQs

A Repair Cafe is a community gathering where volunteers with repair skills help people fix broken or damaged items, such as clothing, appliances, electronics, furniture, and more. The goal is to promote sustainability and reduce waste by encouraging repair and reuse instead of disposal.

We’re always on the look out for new volunteers. If you’d like to learn more about volunteering with us, click here.

Repairs are free, although we do accept pay-what-you-can donations. If your item requires parts, you’ll need to order and pay for these yourself.
