Repair Café

Repair Cafe Signup 03/08/25

The central mission of Repair Café is to impart knowledge of making repairs and/or mending to the client. The purpose is to teach the client to mend and/or do the repair on their own.

Given the increased interest in Repair Café, the specialist is limited to helping the client within the allotted 1/2 hour appointment time. Repairs and/or mending that require more time will need to be finished by the client.

Please check the volunteer skills we can offer at this Repair Cafe and choose the one that matches the item you need to repair most closely.
