Do you have something on a shelf you’ve been meaning to fix for ages? Bring it to us, we love a repair challenge!

From small appliances to wobbly chairs, sharpening knives and garden tools, patching clothes, as well as saving teddy bears and other soft toys. If it’s broken and you can carry it in, we will do our best to fix it.

On Saturday, March 8, the Repair Café will be held from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the First Congregational Church, across the common.

The event is free for everyone. Walk-ins are available, but to make an appointment, visit repaircafewin.com or scan in this code to sign up.

Repair Café is the joint non-profit collaborative initiative of the First Congregational Church Winchester Environmental Justice Ministry, Winchester Unitarian Society Green Sanctuary, Sustainable Winchester and many local community individuals and repair experts.

We share our knowledge to inspire repairing, rather than replacing.

Do you have no longer needed TV remotes lying around? One of our volunteers pairs them with reconditioned TVs for donation. Please drop them off at the Repair Café and they will be put to good use.

Winchester News is a non-profit organization supported by our community. If you appreciate having local Winchester news, please donate to support our work, and subscribe to our free weekly newsletter.
