Fix Together, Waste Less
What is a Repair Cafe?
Peterborough Repair Café is a free monthly community event where our volunteer repairers help local residents repair portable household items instead of them ending up in landfill.
We believe in reducing waste, sharing practical skills, and bringing people together to make a positive difference for both our community and the environment.
Free Repairs
All repair services are completely free. We're here to help, not to profit.
Community Spirit
Meet your neighbors, share stories, and learn new skills in a friendly environment.
