Some pics from our Repair Café yesterday in Coventry Central Library.

We had more visitors than usual and had to start telling people they might have to wait a long time only 45mins into our 3 hour session as we already had a big queue by then.

We repaired 30 items including a coffee machine, a china ornament, a jacket zip, 2 radios, an electronic toy, a hedge trimmer, a sewing machine and a pair of boots.

Two volunteer repairers fixing a coffee machine. One is engrossed in what they are doing, the other is looking to camera and is giving a thumbs up.
One of our volunteer repairers fixing a radio. The photo only shows a close-up of her hands as she is reaching inside it. One of her hands is covered in notes to self written in biro. The radio is in a kind of white and pink chintzy case.
Close-up of repair to a coffee machine. The owner is holding a phone to take a picture of the inside while the volunteer repairers is pointing at a particular part.
A cute record player. One of those that is in a kind of travelling case. It is a special edition branded 'Virgin' record player, numbered 21 out of only 100 that were made. It was given to the owner for her 21st birthday.


The biggest thank you to everyone who came to our January #RepairCafe. We received £84.69 in donations!

Your donations go towards parking for our volunteers, putting volunteers through PAT testing training, consumables (plugs batteries, cables) so we have stuff on hand for your repairs, and small repayments to set up costs and upgrades to our equipment.

Every penny helps but no donation is required so don't feel you need to donate to come along.

Alex, a man with short grey hair and glasses on top of his head, looks at the camera while working on a toaster. Around him on the table are lots of bits of fixing equipment. Behind him are several other volunteers all working on different things at other tables.
