Repair Volunteer

Aberfoyle Repair Cafe

Repair volunteers:

  • assess items brought in for repair to determine if they can be fixed, according to the type/s of repairs they are capable of doing
  • identify the reasons why items are broken/damaged/not working
  • fix items, if possible
  • show visitors how to fix their items, and involve them in the repair, if possible
  • advise visitors if and what parts are required to complete the repair
  • advise visitors about ongoing maintenance, and how to prevent future problems
  • assist with set up and pack up of tables, chairs and equipment

A small collection of tools and consumables are available for repair volunteers to use for repairs.

**The repair cafe operates at Aberfoyle Community Centre on the second Saturday of the month from 1-4pm. **

  • Volunteers are not required to attend every session, and can choose how often they help at the repair cafe.

  • Volunteers are added to a group chat on Facebook Messenger to stay up to date, and advise when they are available to help with events.
