Our community-driven, volunteer-led repair service helps reduce waste and encourages the repair of everyday items instead of discarding them. We aim to extend our current repair space, enhance community workshops and support educational initiatives on sustainability and the circular economy.

Swansea Repair Space is addressing the growing issue of electronic and household waste. Many items are thrown away when they could be easily repaired, which contributes to environmental degradation. At the same time, there is a lack of accessible repair services and repair education within the local community, leading to more waste and missed opportunities for sharing and developing skills.
We will continue to keep our repair space, Library of Things and workshops open, offering free and low-cost repair services. We'll teach about repair skills and promote the circular economy. By providing these services, we aim to reduce waste, support sustainable practices, and empower individuals with valuable skills to repair items themselves. We'll provide opportunities for volunteer repairs including enhanced training provision.
