Repair Cafe

Join Us for Our First Repair Café of 2026

We’re back in Kinross with our repair events. As we approach our third anniversary, we’re expanding our efforts by introducing monthly, shorter Repair Cafés throughout 2026. This new format mirrors the approach of other successful groups across Scotland—more frequent sessions, shorter waiting times, and even more opportunities to get your much‑loved items fixed.

Each session will run for two hours, giving you quicker access to our volunteers and reducing the time between events. Because larger electrical items—such as hi‑fi systems—can take longer to repair, we kindly ask that you book in advance if you plan to bring one along. You can reserve a slot by emailing us at kinrossrepaircafe@gmail.com.

What to Expect

Our Repair Café offers a wide range of repair skills under one roof. You’ll find volunteers ready to help with:

• Textiles and clothing
• Electricals and electronics
• Bikes
• Household items
• String instruments (occasionally)

We’re also delighted to introduce a new tool‑sharpening service for household items such as scissors and knives. This service is appointment‑only with limited availability. To book, simply visit our Repair Café page and follow the instructions provided there.

Why Come Along?

Bring your broken items, enjoy a warm cuppa, and have a friendly chat while our volunteers work their magic. It’s a brilliant way to save money, reduce waste, and learn more about how things are mended. Whether you’re popping in for a quick fix or staying to watch the repair process, you’ll be part of a welcoming community effort to keep useful items in circulation.

We can’t wait to see you at our first Repair Café of 2026!
