Do you have to buy a new food processor just because the one from 1950 stopped working? No, that would be such a waste of resources to buy a new one that will break down once the guarantee period just ends! Visit one of the Repair Cafe's instead!
Gothenburg (Göteborg, the 2nd largest town in Sweden) joined the movement last spring and we are so proud of being able to use our skills to help people being more sustainable and not just throw stuff and buy new things all the time.
We fix broken mobiles, here our French member Clemént replaces the screen and goes through the steps with the owner of the phone!
Headphones are breaking first so we end up fixing a pair almost every time we open!
People come in with the oddest things, for example this projector from Germany in the 1930's and the lamp still working!
Stay tuned for more pictures with stories about repairing, we run the Repair Cafe every other Monday!
