🧩 Create, Upcycle & Connect at Ecofest! 🎨

📍 Repair Help Desk Site (near the Zen Zone)
📅 Sunday 7 June
⏰ 9.00am – 3.00pm

Visit the Repair Help Desk and help us turn unwanted materials into something beautiful.

Throughout the day we'll be creating a community mosaic using broken crockery and tiles. Everyone is invited to add a piece, and once completed, the mosaic will be gifted to the Community Garden for everyone to enjoy.

We'll also have a simple upcycling craft activity for all ages, giving old materials a new purpose and showing that creativity and sustainability go hand in hand.

Drop in anytime during Ecofest and help us create something special together!

🎨🛠️ Painting Advice at the Benaraby Repair Help Desk 🛠️🎨

Not sure what paint to use?
Wondering how to prep a surface?
Trying to revive an old piece of furniture or tackle a painting project at home?

We’re excited to have a retired painter joining the Repair Help Desk to offer free advice and guidance. 😊

He won’t be doing the painting for you, but he can help with things like:
🎨 Furniture restoration and repainting
🏠 Interior and exterior wall painting
🪵 Surface preparation and primers
🖌️ Paint types, finishes and colour advice
🛠️ General painting tips and troubleshooting.

Whether you’re refreshing a chair, repainting a room or just don’t know where to start, this is a great chance to get advice from someone with years of experience.

🌿 Community-focused, practical advice, free to access.

🔧✨ Another great day at the Repair Help Desk! ✨🔧

Today we took on shoes, clothes, a sewing machine… and even some plastic fold-up tables that had definitely seen better days. 👀

It turns out a lot of things aren’t broken… they just needed a bit of love (and someone who knows what they’re doing. 😄)

Thanks to everyone who came along, brought items, and helped out — such a great community effort. 💛

Got something on its last legs? Bring it next time… we like a challenge. 😏

A jacket was recently left at a Food is Free table, but it needed a little TLC — the hems were quite frayed and needed repairing before it could be useful to someone again.
So, the jacket took a quick trip over to the Benaraby Repair Help Desk, where our wonderful volunteers helped fix up the hems and gave it a new lease on life.
Once repaired, it was returned to the table, ready to be enjoyed by someone new. It’s a lovely reminder of what can happen when community initiatives work together — sharing, repairing, and helping good items find a new life instead of going to waste.
If you have something that needs fixing, the next Repair Help Desk is on Sunday the 12th of April from 9.00am to 12.00pm (please see the booking link in the comments).
Thank you to the volunteers who helped make this happen. 💚
