On Saturday 12 February from 10am-1pm, there will be a team of volunteer repairers at St. Michael’s Church, Amersham ready to help people fix their things, just like the popular BBC show.
Peter Strachan, Buckinghamshire Council’s’ Cabinet Member for Climate Change and Environment, commented:
“There is already an established network of repairers across Buckinghamshire such as the seven Repair Cafés, The Men in Sheds and The Repair Barn who all do brilliant work. FCC Environment’s pop-up repair events will greatly benefit those parts of Buckinghamshire that do not currently have a Repair Café in place, sharing mending skills and making it easier for residents to access repair services across the county. I hope the pop-up Repair Café in Amersham is the first of many!”
If you have something that needs fixing just pop along on the day. You may have to wait to see a repairer but there will be free tea and coffee available throughout the event and free parking at the rear of the building.
If would like to volunteer your time as a repairer, contact Gemma.Green@fccenvironment for further details.
