Welcome to Burwell Repair Cafe
Nine Repair Cafes completed, and we are making a difference!
5370kg of carbon emissions have been prevented by the 250 successful repairs carried out.
57% of the items presented to our amazing volunteers have been repaired.
Only 45 of 453 items were considered to be unrepairable!
That is equivalent to the amount of CO2 saved by growing 86 tree seedlings for 10 years, or driving about 13,5000 miles or charging over 300,000 smartphones!
Booking a Repair
The tenth Burwell Repair Cafe will be held on a date to be confirmed, from 14:00 to 17:00 in Mandeville Hall (what3words ///cones.reset.foal).
You will soon be able to book a slot to have your broken appliances assessed and, hopefully, mended at the next Burwell Repair Cafe.
More details will be available before the end of March.
The earlier you book, the more likely we are to be able to see your item.
If you make a booking, please make a record of the date in your diary or calendar.
We will send you emails about your repair with 'Burwell Repair Cafe' in the subject field, so please check your junk folder if you don't seem to have heard from us.
Just complete the form below: we will get back to you with event details in the week before the Repair Cafe at the latest, and we may request more information about the item to assist our repairers.
If you have any questions don't hesitate to email us at BurwellRepairCafe@gmail.com
Please look on our FAQ page for more information about what we do, the items that can be brought for repair, and how you can help.
Please read our Terms and Conditions before booking your repair.
If you think that you might be able to use your knowledge and skills to support our team of dedicated repairers, please let us know.
If you can't make it on that day, there are additional Repair Cafes being run in the Cambridge area. Details can be found on the Cambridge Carbon Footprint website - scroll down past the FAQs.
