Repair Cafes across the UK are taking part in The Big Fix this Saturday. “The aim is to fix as many broken items as possible and save 60 tonnes of CO2!” says Recycle Devon.
A quick intro to Python – short scripts, rapid results.
To find events all over the country go to www.recycledevon.org/big-fix-2020. We know of extra events that aren’t on this list so it could be worth searching #TheBigFix2020 on Twitter to find your nearest location.
“There are currently 109 repair cafes registered in the UK with more opening every year. The Repair Café movement started over 10 years ago in the Netherlands and there are now over 1000 worldwide.”
For more information about repair cafes, we wrote about them in Issue 18 which is available to download for free here.
