Transition Buxton
“You can make a lot of speeches, but the real thing is when you dig a hole, plant a tree, give it water, and make it survive. That's what makes the difference.”

Repair Cafe – on 27th April 2024

Look out for our sign

The next Repair Café will be at the Methodist Church on the market place as usual.  It will be on 27th April 2024 from 9:30 AM until 1 PM.

This is a great opportunity to bring along that non-working or broken item and see of one of our repairers can fix it for you. 

Rather than just consigning it to history come and see if it can be a part of your future as well and help reduce waste into the bargain!
