Now here's a clever recycle/upcycle idea...this is a very different kind of workshop. Based on the Repair Café movement in Holland, the aim is to fix or repair any garment or electrical/mechanical device you can get to the café – for free! Hosted by Lee Townsend at the Lockkeepers Café, there will be experienced engineers and sewing/machining volunteers from Transition Stroud to try to fix whatever you bring. You get it fixed (hopefully) - and for free, the planet benefits as you don’t have to buy a new one and we all have a relaxing time over a coffee at your local café.
Date: Sunday October 20th
Time: 2.30pm to 4.30pm
Venue: Lockkeepers Cafe, Wallbridge, Stroud
Cost: Just buy a cup of coffee!
Best to book a slot to let us know if you have clothes to be mended or mechanical/electrical goods to be fixed. So email: erik.w@virgin.net - or ring 07725 900666
