Purley on Thames Repair Cafe
"Fix items that would otherwise be thrown any, saving money and landfill"
The Purley on Thames Repair Café launched in 2021 and has been a great success with more than 600 items seen to date! We have repaired Daleks, split trousers, heirlooms and Thomas the Tank Engine. The items have been mundane and exciting and everything in between.
§ Got a broken vacuum cleaner?
§ A wobbly chair?
§ A favourite toy needing some love and attention?
§ A favourite pair of trousers needing a new hem?
Bring them along, and our team of skilled volunteers will do their best to help you repair, restore, and reuse, saving you the cost of replacement. Even if you don’t have a repair, come on down anyway, meet the volunteers, learn a skill or two, enjoy some delicious food and beverages
It’s easy, come along to the Mad Duck Café:
1. Complete a form with a few details about you and the item
2. One (or more) of our volunteers will try and repair it for you – you are encouraged to sit with them to learn more about repairs yourself too.
3. If you are happy with the repair, tell us
4. Consider donating to keep the Repair Café operating and enable more local projects to be developed
5. Tell your friends and family about us
If you are not sure if your item can be repaired, feel free to ask in advance – www.purleysustainability.co.uk/repair
