Repair Cafe Guildford

Repairing household items that are brought in by visitors to our monthly Repair Café. These could be all manner of things, but the main types of repair are electrical, e.g. lamps and other small household items; sewing (with or without a sewing machine); mechanical, bicycles, garden tools and toys.

So, if you have any of these skills, we'd love to hear from you. The time commitment would be just one morning a month at The Hive Community Centre in Guildford. There is plenty of free parking, and we will provide free drinks and biscuits.

Guildford Repair Cafè runs every third Saturday of the month at The Hive Community Centre in Guildford from 10am to 12 noon. A friendly group of volunteers run the café and help repair small household items, from clothing to electricals and toys to gardening tools. The Repair Café is supported by Guildford Borough Council and the ‘Rotary Club of Guildford Wey’

Over the years our skilled repairers have helped save thousands of products from landfill and have given a new lease of life to some much-loved items, as well as more practical objects. Recently we were able to repair a small wooden stool that its owner had bought on honeymoon many years before, and countless lamps are now shining brightly again, thanks to our electrical specialists.

So don’t be shy, pop in for a free cuppa, and see what its all about, or message us if you have an item for repair. It’s always worth checking before the next session to make sure that we have the right repairer available on the day. Even more importantly, we’d love to hear from you if you have repairing skills that you’d like to share
