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 Saturday July 26th, Repair Cafe Edinburgh will return to Craigmillar at ​Bridgend Farmhouse. Their volunteers will be on hand to help you to repair your broken electrical, electronic and mechanical devices such as toys, small / low-voltage electricals, laptops.

Not everything's fixable at their events - they're limited by time, spare parts, safety, capacity - to avoid disappointment we encourage you to contact them beforehand.  So if you’ve got something that you want to fix, email repaircafeedinburgh@gmail.com to confirm suitability and to reserve your place. Or just turn up on the day and they’ll try to take a look.

They encourage you to attend using public transport or active travel means; the venue has extremely limited parking and is a 5 minute walk from the Cameron Toll shopping centre.
