Chester Repair Café a project from Chester Friends of the Earth brings together skilled volunteers in a friendly, accessible community environment (with cake!) to repair broken or damaged household items.
People will have the opportunity to bring their items for repair and, if they want, to learn how to repair and maintain items themselves.
This helps our communities to breathe new life into household items which would otherwise end up in landfill, incinerated or exported from our country.
Good cake and a friendly atmosphere are essential, and all our wonderful volunteers bring plenty of both!
Future Repair Café dates

It’s recommended that you only bring one item at a time to the Repair Café, because you will need to be with the repairer while the repair is being carried out. If a specific part is needed, you may be required to purchase the part and bring it back to the Café (either during the session, or the next one).
