Things are vital in our lives yet they have a habit of breaking just when we most need them! Our Time-After-Time sponsored mobile repair café operates in conjunction with our mobile community larder, and at major events throughout Cornwall, to promote repair, especially of Waste Electronic and Electrical Equipment (WEEE) including tablets and mobile phones. We educate on consumer choice, modular design and prevention as well as seeking to keep devices running well or troubleshoot when they go wrong. Get in touch if our repair van could be a feature at your event. We are also looking to aid in the setup of 8 more monthly Cornish Repair Cafes at a location near you – we supply a starter tool kit and all necessary advice like joining the Insured Cornwall Repair Café Network. Please see www.tregonyrepaircafe.org to get a feel for how awesome it could be for your community!
Look out for us at events near you
Do get in touch if this could be a feature at an event you are running. An extra part of this community outreach is thanks to the Royal Society of Chemistry who have sponsored ‘REDOX chemistry of Renewable Energy’ quite a mouthful but we will make it simple and interactive! Demonstrations include electrolysis for disinfectant, pyrolysis for smoke free fires, Lithium battery charging, Methanol as an ecological fuel for combustion and for use in an onboard fuel cell to generate electricity.
