Llandrindod Repair Café has been running since June 2014, and was chosen by The Guardian as one of 17 top community projects from around the UK in their "Live Better" Community Project series. In 2019 it celebrated its 1,000th repair. The Repair Café idea began in Amsterdam in 2007 and has since been taken up all round the world. No charge but the cost of any parts must be paid for and donations towards running costs are always gratefully received

Put your unused tools to good use!
The Repair Café is an official collection point for Tools for Self Reliance Cymru. Have a clear-out of any unwanted tools or sewing machines and we will help put them to good use. The Repair Cafe has a list of wanted tools, but most items will be accepted (especially workshop tools). Items can be brought to a monthly Repair cafe session or dropped in to The Hive, South Cres, Llandrindod Wells LD1 5DH between 10 - 4 Monday-Friday.
At the Repair Café on July 8th we handed over a load of tools that our generous visitors have donated over the past few months. Ian Jones from Tools for Self Reliance Cymru (second from right in the photo) also brought along a range of new gardening tools for sale made by the community organisations in Africa that they support. Also in the photo are a number of our regular "fixperts" who between them repair dozens of items at each Café.
