A group of 蜜桃AV staff is hoping to set up a聽Repair Caf茅聽for students and staff to attend and create a shared聽repair community. The small voluntary team is looking to expand their resources and skillset, so are looking for keen repairers to help with the project.
Repair Caf茅s are free meeting places and they鈥檙e all about repairing things together. You will be able to find聽tools and materials to help you make any repairs you need. From clothes, furniture, and electrical appliances, to bicycles, crockery, appliances, toys and more.
The team are looking for staff and students聽who:
- Have聽some spare time (maximum two hours per month) to volunteer to help prepare for and run 蜜桃AV Repair Cafes
- Are handy with clothing/textiles, electrical appliances, furniture/wooden objects or anything else that could be repaired
- Are keen to learn and gain these skills
- Have聽spare materials, such as thread, buttons, wires or plugs, that could be used to repair objects brought to the caf茅
- Thinks this project sounds interesting and wants to get involved!
The first event takes place on Wednesday 16 November between 11am - 2pm, in the Student Centre. The team hope to run these cafes monthly. If you have any ideas or thoughts on what you鈥檇 particularly like to see or fix, please let us know.
If you are interested in being involved, please contact the 蜜桃AV Sustainability Team at聽[email protected].
