“My dad was in the Royal Navy and served for 22 long years. He was on the HMS Nelson and minesweepers. He was stationed at Portsmouth but he traveled to many countries during his service, like Malta and Gibraltar.

“One time when he was on his way back from Aden, a port city in Yemen, he brought back two teddy bears. One for me and one for my sister. We have kept them since, and the bears are now 75 years old!

“I always look after things, so when I heard about the Repair Café, I thought I’d bring in my teddy whose paws needed a repair. The stuffing was coming off of the feet, and one of the volunteers was able to sew on brand new suede patches on the paws.”

- Jean

Jean’s father retired after 22 years of service as a Chief Petty Officer. His memory lives on with his daughters and the teddy. ❤️

Happy International Repair Day 2025 from Repair Cafe Wi******er! 🥳🛠️

It's the day we celebrate the heroes of the toolkit and the joy of keeping things out of the bin. Every time you choose to repair instead of replace, you're saving money, cutting waste, and learning a valuable skill.

How you can celebrate today:

Bring It In: Got a broken gadget or textile? Stop by one of our next events, 1st November in Littleton and 8th November in Badger Farm, and let our volunteer fixers help you!

Learn a Skill: Take the time to watch, ask questions, and learn how to do a simple repair yourself.

Spread the word: Post a picture of your repairs and tell others about repair cafes and resources!
