Repair Cafes in Essex - Help Sought

Andy Webb

Hi

I work in technology for Essex County Council. We're exploring the viability of supporting repair cafes in Essex as part of sustainability and the circular economy.

Can anyone offer any guidance and experience around setting these up. Or if you're Essex based, is that something you'd have the time and enthusiasm to get involved ?

I and my colleagues would love to hear from you

Andy - direct message me  or reply below if you have any questions.

  • This is a bit of an old post but I am thinking of setting up a repair cafe in Essex, we have a site and enigeering skills but are looking for funding

    Hi Geoff,

    Just interested in what you're expecting to need funding for? We didn't find we needed any, but then we do have relatively low cost premises and our insurance is covered by the premises - we find the donations cover the room rental and cafe ingredients which are our only costs.
