Bring items to fix to Christ Church on Turnham Green
The third ever Chiswick Repair Café is taking place this Saturday (21 January ) at Christ Church Turnham Green from 10.30am to 1pm.

People bring broken or worn items to the Repair Café and the volunteers help them to mend it, or advise what else can be done. If you can carry it to the venue, they will have a go at fixing it. Visitors pay for the parts and are asked to make a donation to the Repair Café running costs. The offering will generally include:
The venture was started by Charlotte, Jill, Kate and Marie-Claire, a group of local residents who are involved with various green initiatives around Chiswick and are part of the Hounslow Environmental Champions programme. For further information contact: Chiswickrepaircafe@gmail.com.
