Wellingborough Eco Group and Glamis Hall are hosting their fourth Repair Cafe on Saturday 14th March from 9am till 12, during the Indoor Car Boot Sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\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

There is no charge for entry or repair but donations are gratefully received and help pay for costs. You can basically bring anything you can carry that will not make a mess in the venue. Here are some suggestions:<\/p>\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.<\/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. You can even bring several things \u2013 though to be fair, you will have to join the queue several times!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

There will also be demonstrations on how to reuse stuff that would otherwise end up in landfill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are also seeking more repairers, so if you want to share your skills (whatever they are) to save stuff being thrown away, join us. We would love you to get involved! Message us via messenger if you are interested.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
