The first Guelph Repair Cafe was held on August 20th, 2016 at St James the Apostle church from 9 to 1. Volunteers helped fix broken and damaged clothes, jewelery, bikes, electrical appliances, wooden items, etc.
Article about this event on Guelph Today.
The Cafe also featured a Swap Table where participants brought items in good working order that they no longer needed and swaped them for something of equivalent value.
People also had the opportunity to learn more about the Guelph Tool Library which is currently accepting donations of gently used kitchen appliances, gardening tools, arts and crafts tool and hand tools.
