Repair Café

Above SUSSED James St., Porthcawl CF36 3GB on Saturdays currently 10.30am to 12.30pm

In response to increasing public concern locally regarding the climate emergency and resource loss, Sustainable Wales is helping establish a Repair Café in Porthcawl. We need to move away from a disposable culture and rebuild a more resilient community, bringing back repair and reuse into daily life.
 
Repair Cafes reduce landfill, loss of raw materials, saving energy, pollution and money whilst helping work towards a more sustainable future. Cafes are also social, people meet friends and can learn new skills.
 
Bring along your broken or damaged hand-held items and our volunteer repairer will try to fix it, for free.
 
We cannot guarantee that we are able to repair everything brought into the Café, but we will definitely give it a try.
 
We don’t charge for repairs but donations are very welcome to help us cover our costs.
 
Can you help? Cafes are run by skilled volunteers – we need more - if you have repair skills you can share please get in touch.
