Chester Repair Cafe's first birthday

Chester Repair Cafe is celebrating its first birthday on Saturday 18th October.

Chester Repair Cafe is celebrating its first birthday on Saturday 18th October with a special event at the Hoole Community Centre, from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm. 

The event coincides with International Repair Day, and the cafe invites visitors to bring items to be repaired by volunteer experts.  

It's a community-run initiative that helps reduce waste by repairing broken household items for free, giving them a new lease on life. 

What to bring: One broken item at a time, such as clothing, small electricals, or tools. 

You may need to purchase parts and bring them back for future sessions.

In the midst of a climate crisis, and the cost of living crisis, the Repair Cafe is more vital than ever as they can help save people money while saving their belongings from landfill.
