We currently have three toolkits that are lent out to Repair Cafes in Cambridgeshire. The toolkits include important safety equipment and signage as well as tools that repairers in our network rely on. For this reason, you must book a toolkit if you would like to recruit repairers from our network and/or come under the Cambridge Carbon Footprint Master Insurance for Repair Cafes.
Find out more about where our toolkits are based and what’s in them.
To book one of our Repair Cafe toolkits you must:
Check the calendar which shows Repair Cafes using our toolkits. You will not be able to choose a date with three Repair Cafes already booked, as no toolkits will be available.
Then please fill in the form below. This doesn’t specify which of the three toolkits – one will be allocated to you, usually your closest one.
When you have submitted the booking form, you will receive a confirmation email including the contact details for all Toolkit Hosts.
The toolkit booking (click on the name of the Repair Cafe) will initially be shown on the calendar above as “TBD”.
When your Repair Cafe is three to four weeks away, please check back to see which toolkit you have been allocated. Then please CONTACT THE TOOLKIT HOST using the information in your confirmation email to make arrangements for toolkit collection and return. You will need a car and at least one person who is able to lift in order to collect the toolkit. The largest box requires two people to lift it. You can ask your Toolkit Host to help you with this.
Usually we ask that toolkits are collected at the earliest 12 noon on the Wednesday preceding the Repair Cafe and returned at the latest 12 noon on the Wednesday following the Repair Cafe, but please check with your Toolkit Host.
Thank you to our sponsors who support the vibrant community repair movement in Cambridgeshire
