Are your gardening tools a little blunt from overuse?
Our sharpener volunteer is ready for a variety of your blades-limit 2 knives or 1 tool that requires taking apart (eg. Scissors/Secateurs/Shears) to allow fair go for other attendees.

What is Repair Cafe?
A space to bring your items that need fixing for our volunteers to look at, hopefully to fix on the day, but if not, give advice on what steps might be needed, what other materials or tools might be needed, and where this can be done.

Run on the 3rd Saturday of every odd month (excluding January), 12:30-2:30pm in the Community Space at All Saints Anglican Church, 14 Church Street Greensborough.

Book your item for Repair at the next Cafe, Saturday 19th September via https://www.trybooking.com/DPELE

And contact us via DM if you are interested in volunteering-we are always looking for people who have skills to share.
