Guide to reducing and recycling waste

If something at home is broken, consider repairing it before throwing it away.

Repair cafés are friendly, community-run events. Skilled volunteers will help you fix everyday items such as:

• small electrical items
• clothing and textiles
• bicycles
• household goods

Repair cafés can help you:

• save money
• reduce waste
• learn new skills
• meet people in your local community
