Highgate Repair Café

Book a free session with our volunteers\repairers (and\or come along to help fix).

What do you do with a chair when the leg has come loose? A lamp that no longer works? A toaster that doesn't toast? A holey jumper? Throw it away? No way!

Don't leave it in a cupboard - let us help you fix it. Getting into the habit of repairing and reusing things helps us all. Saves money too of course.

A group of people in and around the Highgate Society approached us for help with repairers in late 2025 and found St Michaels willing to host. So the Highgate Repair Café was born.

We help them hold Repair Cafés on the second Saturday of every month (with exceptions in June and August).

Repair Cafés like this one are free community events. We match 'bringers' who carry in something broken with experienced 'fixers' who can help, in a relaxed 'café' environment. Around half of what is brought in gets fixed.

We'll help you fix it yourself and\or do it for you under your control.

Looking forward to seeing you at the event :)
