Gravesham Repair Café

  Gravesham Repair Café We repair broken household items - bikes, clothes, electricals, clocks and more. Repair events normally take place on:    the 1st Thursday of the month between 10am and 2pm St George's Church Hall, Gravesend  DA11 0DJ and the 2nd Saturday of the month between 10am and 2pm at Vigo Village Hall, The Bay, Vigo Village DA13 0TD     See our calendar page St George's Church Hall  Vigo Village Hall   We are staffed by volunteers with plenty of repair experience.  Members of the public are welcome to drop in with their broken items and we'll do our best to get those items working again. Since we held our first event at the end of 2023 we have repaired trouser zips, missing buttons, clocks that won't run, radios that don't play, food mixers that don't start - and much more besides - especially bikes. Find us also at our Facebook Page A Glimpse Inside ... What do you need mended? Bring it along and we'll give it a go Or if you...
