Wellingborough Swap Shop and Repair Caf\u00e9 are on<\/strong> this Saturday!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wellingborough Eco Group and Glamis Hall are hosting the Repair Caf\u00e9<\/a> and Wellingborough Swap Shop<\/a> on Saturday 11th June, 9 -12. Both will be in the Community Room and we have a couple of other stalls with us outside too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Repair Caf\u00e9 <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Repair Cafes are community events that match people who need stuff fixed with people who like fixing things. Repair Cafes are completely non-commercial. There are no promises and no guarantees, but if something can be saved the repairers will give it their best efforts. Repairers are always keen to teach you how to do the repair \u2013 or at least have you watch while they do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A bicycle, clothing in need of repair, small electrical or electronic appliances, lamps, toys, mobile phones, laptops, printers, items that need gluing, a clean\/repair etc. You can basically bring anything you can carry that will not make a mess in the venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever it is, it might not even be broken \u2013 just dirty, and you don\u2019t know how to clean it without damaging it \u2013 or you can\u2019t work out how to use it without the manual \u2013 bring it along! There is no charge for entry or repair but donations are gratefully received and help pay for costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See you on Saturday morning at Glamis Hall where we try to fix your broken items for FREE!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wellingborough Swap Shop<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We will be in the Community Room and all items will be available for swaps or a small donation to the group. You can bring something and swap it for something else or you can buy something on a \u2018pay as you feel\u2019 basis with a donation to the group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please can everyone keep toes, eyes, fingers, legs, arms – ANYTHING and EVERYTHING crossed for some good weather so we can get everything out and some bits outside for you to browse through. We’ll have the gazebos up for a couple of stalls that will be joining us too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Food Sharers<\/a> will also have a few bits for you and their ‘Bargain Buys’ table. All Bargain Buys items are items we have been offered to purchase, we always price them lower than the shops so that the low price we have paid gets passed on to you. Plus Wellingborough Baby Bank<\/a> will have selected items out in return for monetary donations to their cause to purchase more nappies and milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, pop along, grab a bargain or swap with us, get your broken items fixed for free and support the other stalls. See you there!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
