Whey hey - mentioned in despatches :-) !

Upper Esk Valley Repair Cafe was due to be joining repair groups from across the UK at a repair cafe in Parliament, to call for policies to make it easier to repair our things.

Just had a pre-event briefing via Zoom with many other representatives from various Repair Cafe's and those from The Restart Project. Looking forward to going to the Houses of Parliament next week to try and get MP's to sign up to the Repair and Reuse Declaration UK.

We're calling for more support for reuse and repair. Check out the declaration and ask your MP to support it.
