🎶 Back on the decks for Sarah! 🎶

This beautiful vinyl record player was a gift from Sarah’s neighbor, but it lost its voice. Sarah brought it to us, and after some careful fixing, it’s spinning perfectly and sounding better than ever! 🔊

✨ It’s not just a repair, it’s keeping a gift and a story alive. 🧡

Here are some of our latest before and afters from a jeans-heavy day!

Some of these repairs are completely unnoticeable and give your jeans a much longer life!

Anna, one of our incredibly skilled volunteers, worked her magic on this stroller! 🛠️ Its arm was jammed and wouldn’t work properly.

Now, Ele is back on the move and can carry her kids everywhere just like before! 🤩

The 1-2-3 of making a difference in Chorlton. 🛠️✨

Dozens of items are rescued every single session. But behind every fixed toaster or patched-up coat is a person who gave a little bit of their Saturday to help❤️

Whether you’re a pro with a screwdriver, a whiz with a sewing needle, or just someone who loves a good chat, there’s a seat at the table for you.

It’s as easy as 1-2-3:
1️⃣ One Saturday a month.
2️⃣ Two hours of your time.
3️⃣ Thousands of smiles guaranteed.

You don’t need to be an expert to make an impact—you just need a heart to help. DM 📩us to join the crew for our next session! 🧡

𖤣.𖥧.𖡼.⚘ Why Repair Cafe? 𖤣.𖥧.𖡼.⚘

Some-beloved household items stopped working or your pair of jeans is waiting to repair inside the wardrobe? That’s why we are here!

𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐟𝐞 runs once-a-month, 100% volunteer-run and funded by donations, built on a very simple idea: 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗯𝗶𝗻 𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗳𝗶𝘅 𝗶𝘁 🌍

Here is how a Repair Cafe actually works ♻️
🌳 Sustainability - Every item we rescue, one less thing in the local landfill.
🌳 Fix Together - We skill-share. Our volunteers diagnose the issue and show you how to repair it. You may learn a new skill while we solve the problem
🌳 Community Connection - It’s about bringing the Chorlton neighborhood together, sharing stories, and meeting new people.

It is free to attend, powered by volunteers and donations to keep the lights on and the tools sharp. We will try our best to give every bring in item a second chance.

Tag your friends to share about the cafe or let us know if you want to know more about how it works 😉
