    Our Goals

    SOCIAL

    Grab coffee, tea and tasty treats! Chat with old friends and make new ones. Our cafe is here during events to help make you feel comfortable and welcome while your item is being assessed and hopefully repaired.

    ECONOMIC

    Sometimes a very simple repair is all that is needed to fix a broken or damaged item. This saves the unnecessary cost of a replacement. When we send less waste to landfill, environmental costs are also reduced and the whole community benefits! 

    ENVIRONMENTAL

    Repair extends a product's useable life, reduces waste and pollution, and saves energy, carbon emissions and finite non-renewable resources. It reduces the need to recycle which can deplete more resources than producing something new.
