Hub Repair Cafe

What is a Repair Café?

A Repair Café is a community-driven initiative that encourages people to repair their broken items rather than discarding them. It serves as a gathering place where individuals can share skills, tools, and knowledge to fix a variety of items.

What can I bring?

The Hub's Repair Cafe is for both bikes and fabrics. Bring any clothing or soft furnishings needing basic repairs or alterations or any bikes in need of basic fixes, inner tube replacements or check-ups. Please bring along any spare parts such as inner tubes or new zips so our repairers can best help you.

How much does it cost?

All repairs are carried out free of charge but a donation is encouraged to help cover running costs. All donations go back into the Repair Cafe or towards The Hub's youth work.

All items in the cafe cost £1 each.
