Twickenham Repair Café hit 1,000 repairs

Community news on behalf of Twickenham Repair Cafe | 6 November 2023

Twickenham Repair Café express their gratitude to their team for their dedication, positivity and love of solving problems always with big smiles. The repairers have shared their skills, saved over five tonnes from landfill and raised over £2,000 for charity over 19 months since the café opened.

Their combined experience has enabled them to fix almost anything including: iPads, clocks, lawn mowers, coffee machines, clothes, bikes, lamps, ceramics, furniture and even sharpen garden shears!

The work has inspired seven other café openings across South West London and the café is a great nucleus for other projects most recently collecting over 300 tools for Africa as part of Tools With a Mission.

The customers are always so grateful and there is a wonderful positive vibe in the hall. Come and share the experience on the third Saturday of every month at the Twickenham Repair Café.
