A new community Repair Café is launching in Ringmer on Saturday 26 April, open from 10:00am–12:30pm at the Parish Council Office
This volunteer-led initiative aims to reduce waste, encourage repair skills, and support a more sustainable future. Visitors are invited to bring one item in need of repair – such as a small electrical appliance, IT device, mechanical object, clothing (no alterations), or a garden tool for sharpening. Advice will also be available for ceramics.
The Repair Café will run on the last Saturday of most months, with a small local team doing their best to help.
