February St Albans District Fixers Repair Fair

February 21 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

St Albans District Fixers are coming to All Saints Church, Harpenden to help repair household fabrics and electrical items you might otherwise throw away. This is part of a wider initiative to reduce waste, save people money and in the longer term prevent our planet from being destroyed by over exploitation of our shared resources.

Theโ€ฏSt Albans District Fixersโ€ฏare part of Sustainable St Albans http://www.sustainablestalbans.org/st-albans-district-fixers. We hold Repair Fairs around the district inspired by The Restart Projectโ€ฏ. Fixing rather than buying replacements has already saved thousands of tons from going to landfill or incineration helping in a not insignificant way to reduce our CO2 emissions.

So bring along your faulty electrical items and worn, torn fabrics. Our team of skilled amateur fixers will do their best to put them right or offer advice. You may even learn to repair things yourself!

We run a booking system for the event and you can book a time for your repair via Eventbrite.

Bookings will go live three weeks prior to the event. Please see our Facebook Page for updates.
