Information

Hungerford Repair Café

Hungerford Repair Café is a meeting place where you can get help repairing your things. Repairs and refreshments are free – we rely solely on donations from grateful members of the public to help us to cover our costs. Please tell your friends and help spread the word.

Our next Repair Cafe is scheduled for 20th May 2023 at the Croft Hall in Hungerford. Doors open to visitors at 10:00 am and close at 12:30 pm. We plan to hold similar meetings throughout 2023 approximately every 2 months, provisionally on the following dates:

  • 15th July
  • 16th September
  • 18th November

We run several repair stations covering electrical items, non-electrical items (including toys and furniture), tool sharpening and textiles/clothing. Our friendly and skilled repairers will help to fix products where they are able to, or will offer advice on repairs or where to obtain spare parts etc. Here is what some of our visitors have said:

  • “It now works perfectly, he made it look easy!”
  • “Good to have access to someone with knowledge”
  • “Wonderful idea and is obviously a great success, even the coffee was good”

If an item is larger than hand luggage or unusual in any way, please email infogilbert9@gmail.com to assess the feasibility of repair. We do not undertake to repair petrol-driven items or mobile phones. Also, we do not take items for re-use. We will ask you to complete a repair form on arrival. This helps us to keep a record of what we have done and how much we have kept from landfill.

We respectfully ask you not to bring your dog into the hall unless it is an assistance dog. This is to avoid the possibility of accidents with potentially harmful tools and cabling for our workstations. For the same reason, young children should be supervised at all times.

Hungerford Repair cafe is supported by Hungerford Environmental Action Team and the Rotary Club of Hungerford If you would like to help, please get in touch at infogilbert9@gmail.com.
