Hatch Warren Repair Cafe

A volunteer repair cafe where people bring broken household items and gadgets and work with volunteers to diagnose and fix them.

Hatch Warren Repair Cafe hosts a Restart Party where visitors bring broken items — from gadgets to household goods — and volunteers help diagnose faults and attempt repairs. The emphasis is on teaching people to fix things themselves rather than providing a free repair service; visitors should back up their data, charge devices and bring any leads. Repairs succeed in over half of cases, and spare parts are not supplied but volunteers can help source them. The group meets on the first Saturday of each month.
