It’s time to empty your repair drawer and bring it to us!

That’s the message from the Repair Cafe which is carrying out a session at the Bridge Community Church, in Queen’s Road, on Saturday, January 10, from 11am to 2pm.

One popular meme asks people: “If they have got around tuit?”

Was it a tool, or a creature or who knows what?

Most of us have a box of repairs that we’ll get to one day.  Our own “round tuit” box.

So you can bring your box to the Repair Café and we’ll get around to it for you.

There’s no shame because, how ever big your box is, the volunteers who run the cafe will have a larger one!

Their aim is to stop things from being thrown away when they could be repaired and given a new lease of life.
