Got something that’s broken? Want to try fixing it but not sure how?  

Repair Cafes are free community events where you can bring your item and volunteer fixers will guide you through your repair.  

On Wednesday December 4th, Repair Cafe Edinburgh will be at the Edinburgh Futures Institute.  Volunteers will be on hand to help you repair your broken electrical, electronic and mechanical devices such as toys, small / low-voltage electricals, laptops. There will also be fabrics volunteers to help with clothing repairs.

Not everything’s fixable at this event, limited by time, spare parts, safety, capacity. To avoid disappointment we encourage you to contact Repair Cafe Edinburgh beforehand. So if you’ve got something that you want to fix, you can email repaircafeedinburgh@gmail.com to confirm suitability and to reserve your place. Or just turn up on the day and they will try to take a look.

Please note: At busy times you might need to wait for a volunteer to become available. Priority will be given to local residents and those with reserved places. The entrance is on Nightingale Way opposite Pure Gym (the main entrance to Edinburgh Futures Institute will be closed). The last repair session will begin at 8:30pm to allow time for finishing up.

See you there!
