May 2025 Repair Cafe

♻️ Pascoe Vale Repair Café Returns This Sunday! 🛠

Have something that’s seen better days? A lamp that won’t switch on, pants with a tear, or a blender on the fritz? Don’t bin it—bring it to the Pascoe Vale Repair Café this Sunday 4th May, 10am–1pm at 7 Prospect Street, Pascoe Vale.

Our talented volunteers are ready to roll up their sleeves and help with a wide range of repairs. Whether it’s electrical, mechanical, or textile-based, we’re here to help you fix what you love and keep it out of landfill.

This month’s repair crew includes:

• 🔌 2 electrical repairers

• 🔧 2 general/mechanical repairers

• 🧵 5 textile and hand-mending experts

• 💧 Tap washer repair demonstration

It’s free to attend, no bookings needed—just bring your item (and any spare parts if required), and our welcoming front desk team will guide you through the process. Your pay-as-you-feel donations help keep the café running strong.

♻️ While you’re here, drop off items for reuse or recycling:
