The Telford Repair café is a volunteer organisation protecting and safeguarding the environment for the public benefit through the promotion of repair and re-use of products as a means of preventing and minimising waste. 

We currently move around community sites in Telford offering the opportunity for people to come along with items for repair and for our volunteers to understand if or how they can be repaired often leading to a repair there and then.

We have many volunteer opportunities that only take up 3-4 hours a month, providing a chance to make a real difference to communities and the environment.  

We are looking for volunteers with repair skills whether in sewing, electrical, IT or just someone who likes to be challenged by a need for something to work or be functional again. 

Alternatively you might be someone wanting to develop your skills through watching and being mentored by other volunteer repairers.     

We are also looking for people that can give a few hours a month to admin, registration, volunteer support or marketing all of these roles being valuable to the future success of the Telford Repair Cafe.
