- monthly repair workshops, where the public can come with items (non electrical) that our volunteers can either fix their item for them for a donation or fix for free if the person is interested in learning how to fix the item. The Market will be a hive of activity and support for local people in Conamara (and the people of Galway City/County) interested in living and celebrating more sustainably.
