A lot of items we discard can easily be fixed with a little bit of care and help of friends who are more knowledgeable and good with their hands. Friend of the Earth Malta will be hosting a repair cafe, with 4 repair stations, one for clothes repair, one for bicycle repair, one more for electronic repair and one for upcycling materials from trash to treasure. This will be a way of sharing our knowledge, helping each other out, and learning of how to easily fix things.

The use-and-dispose attitude is no longer cool, and with our repair cafes we are not only fixing and mending, but also making a statment that as consumer we demand product repairability if we are to move to a more circular economy model.

Grab anything you have that needs fixing, get a friend or two, and join us at the Repair Cafe!
