The public is invited to bring their “well-loved” but weary items to meet a team of expert volunteer fixers. This is not just about getting a free fix; it is about skill-sharing. Watch, learn, and walk away with the knowledge to keep items going for years to come. Whether it is a snagged jumper or a squeaky chain, the repair specialists are ready to help:
🔸Textiles & Clothing: Revive your wardrobe with mending and clever alterations.
🔸Bicycles: From brake tuning to chain maintenance, get back on the road safely.
🔸Tools: Don’t bin those blunt blades. Bring garden and household tools for sharpening and minor repairs. Eimear Montague from NIRN comments, “We are moving away from the ‘take-make-waste’ mindset. This week is about celebrating the value of our belongings and the local heroes who know how to keep them out of landfill.” By extending the life of everyday items, Northern Ireland is taking a bold step toward a more sustainable, resourceful future.
