Hello! We’ll be back at Buckden Village Hall between 1.30 and 4.30 p.m. on Saturday 26th September and look forward to seeing you there! Bookings will open on August 31st. To pre-book, please complete the booking form at bit.ly/BuckdenRepairCafe, or contact us at RepairCafe@buckdenpc.org.uk. Paper forms will also be available in Buckden Library or from the Village Hall.

You can just turn up on the day but may have to wait. Never mind though, there’ll be tea, cakes/savouries to purchase at the Café. If you’ve nothing to be mended, please do join us for a cuppa. Donations can be made by cash or card.

Thank you to everyone who came to our last event in June. Once again our repairers managed to fix 4 out of every 5 items, and only 2 out of the 51 seen had to be consigned to the bin. The generous donations received are really helping us to keep this popular event going - thank you everyone!

If you would be interested in joining the team of helpers or would like to become a volunteer repairer please contact the Parish Clerk: clerk@buckdenpc.org.uk

== Hosted by Buckden PC Repair Cafe ==

The Climate Change Mitigation Advisory Group of the Parish Council are working to make a more sustainable future for the village. One of the things we want to do is to reduce the amount of “stuff” that we buy and send to landfill.

We hope that by holding a repair cafe at least twice a year we might be able to decrease things bought and disposed of unnecessarily. It also provides a local event bringing people together from across the community.

We welcome anyone who is interested in the Repair Café movement to join us, especially anyone with repair skills.
