Clothes, bikes and electronics fixed at inaugural Wanstead Repair Café

Wanstead-Repair-Cafe---13-October-2024-(18)

Wanstead’s first-ever repair café took place last month, attracting more than 100 visitors who were able to register items to be fixed for free, including electrical appliances, jewellery, bicycles and clothes.

The event managed to save 1,320kg of carbon emissions and 159kg of waste… Subject to funding, we are hoping to run more repair cafés in 2025, so get in touch if you’d like to help out,” said Lydia Fraser-Ward, who organised the event alongside Wanstead Climate Action and Christ Church.
