Soham Repair Café

Soham Repair Café

Sun 27 Apr 2025, 10:00am – 2:00pm

Soham’s tenth Repair Café hosted by @Soham Community Association, @TwilightTuesdayWI – Soham and @Cambridgeshire Libraries – a free event – bring along your broken item, be it a kettle, torn jeans or even a smashed phone screen (with a replacement screen of course!) – our experienced repairers will try their best to help give it a new lease of life.

There will be plenty of complimentary cake and tea in our pop up café to keep everyone refreshed thanks to the Soham WI. We welcome all items within reason (electronics, small kitchen appliances, clothing, toys, costume jewellery etc) as long as it can safely sit on a standard table in the library. If you can give us some advance notice on what you might bring and what the problem is then it will help our repairers to be prepared and maybe even advise if you could bring a spare part along to be fitted on the day. Unfortunately we are currently unable to cater for bicycles and outdoor items (e.g. powered garden tools)

If you have any queries and potential items to repair then please ask away – we politely request only one item per person to make things fair, but if we have time and you can join the queue again we will take a look. We ask all repairees to read and sign our repair agreement as we are all volunteers. Donations for repair time are more than welcome!

We have a query form (https://forms.gle/b9j3gMTvD48kwA828) to help us to collate any potential repairs so please do complete this if you have an item to bring along – pre-registered items will take priority over on-the-day walk-ins.

Volunteers repairers and other helpers are also welcome – please contact us on sohamrepaircafe@gmail.com

This event run in partnership with Cambridge Carbon Footprint and insured by Wessex Insurance
