Sharing Skills, Reducing Landfill, and Repairing Goods
Repair Cafés are free meeting places and they’re all about repairing things (together). At Repair Café Greater Bunbury, you’ll find tools and materials to help you make any repairs you need. You’ll also find expert volunteers, with repair skills in all kinds of fields.
Post-consumer waste has become a huge problem in modern society, and this partly stems from a culture of discarding broken or unused items, including clothing and electronics. We’re here to help those in our community who want to save their items from landfill and bring back a culture of repairing.
We can look at:
- Clothing
- Toys
- Bags
- Small Furniture
- Low Voltage Electronics
- And More!
