Hanham Repair Café is holding a free family event called BS15 Repair Fest.
It takes place on November 2 from 11am to 4pm at Hanham Methodist Church.
The event will include
● Repair Stations – Got something broken? Whether it’s electronics, a favourite piece of clothing, or a small household item, bring it along! Our friendly volunteers will help you get it fixed and ready to use again.
● Clothes & Books Swap Shop – Bring along items you no longer want and swap them for something you’ll love. It’s a fun way to refresh your wardrobe and reading collection without spending any money!
● Workshops – There will be hands on workshops aimed at teaching you specific fixing and mending skills. No need to book in advance, you can sign up on the day.
● Activities for all ages – Get creative and make your own creations from surplus
Matt Pang, one of the organisers, said: “Repair Fest is all about enjoying a day out with the community, learning something new, and discovering how easy it can be to repair and reuse. Whether you’re a DIY pro or just looking for something fun to do with family and friends, this event has something for everyone. “
BS15 Repair Fest has received funding from South Gloucestershire Council.
