We have news! We've got a new location in the city centre. In the central library no less. So, on Saturday 27th August we'll be holding our next Repair Cafe and looking forward having a bumper fix fest. :-) #repaircafe#CoventryCity#fixfest
🛠 From the sunbaked streets of Kenya to the creative cafés of New Zealand via a colourful Brazilian workshop, it's time to meet the street doctors who can mend anything.
Enter a world where nothing is junk and rubbish is a raw material. #RepairCafe

All I have to do now is see if it actually works. ;-)
We don't just repair broken things, we can also extend the life of an item by replacing its rechargeable battery. Even if the manufacturer seems to have neglected to tell anyone this is possible. #RightToRepair

As we had to unexpectedly cancel last Saturday's Repair Event (apologies for that) I decided to have a look at my 3D printer. Spot the print nozzle that needs cleaning / replacing. Sigh.
*Cancellation* Due to issues beyond our control, we have to cancel tomorrow's Repair Cafe event in Coventry. Apologies for this but there is a problem at the venue that we can't do anything about. If you need anything repairing then we hope to see you at the event on 28th of May
It's that time again. The next Repair Cafe Coventry event is taking place tomorrow
Hillfields Hub Clarence Street, Hillfields, CV1 5SS.
We'll be there from 10am to noon.
Come and say hello. :-)
