REPAIR CAFE
10th September 2022 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm BST
Saturday 10 September 10 am – 12.30 pm
Free Church, Ashen Green, Great Shelford CB22 5EY
We are grateful to the Free Church for inviting us to be part of their Eco Festival. This is a free event, but donations are welcome. Lots of tea and cake of course!
Bring along your broken item and a skilled volunteer will help you fix it! We can tackle a wide variety of repairs including clothes and fabrics, electrical items, jewellery and other items. We may be able to accept some repairs on the day, but please note that for electrical repairs in particular it is better to book in advance.
You will be able to book your item in from Friday 19 August until Sunday 4 September, via the following link: https://cambridgecarbonfootprint.org/events/shelford-eco-festival-repair-cafe/
Recycling of small electrical items
During the event we will have a recycling bin for small electrical items which are beyond repair, so that they can be used for parts or broken down and recycled. This can be used both for items that we’ve looked at in the Repair Café and for others that you wish to bring along to recycle. Most small items with a plug, cable or battery will be accepted, including:
- Electronic toys
- Kettles or toasters
- Hairdryers or straighteners
- Cables and plugs
- Lamps
- Power tools
- Printers
We won’t be able to take smoke alarms, damaged batteries, ammonia fridges or pressurised cylinders.
