Our next repair event will be on 23rd November at Gainsborough School in Hackney Wick. Join our mailing list for more details and free booking link closer to the date. For other repair events around London see the Restart Project website. You can also visit the Fixing Factory in Camden.
We are working with The Restart Project who have announced they have funding for three new Fixing Factories in London. We're working with them and Hackney Council to try and find suitable premises. This would allow us to offer more community sessions, repair clubs and skill-share workshops. Read more here about the project and how you can help us bring this to Hackney!
We are community partners to Library of Things, a lending library for things you can borrow, rather than buy. The library is open in Hackney Wick and Dalston.
What is Hackney Fixers?
We aim to promote electrical and electronic repair in Hackney as an alternative to growing mountains of waste and consumption. We were inspired by and work with The Restart Project. We hold regular Restart Parties where volunteers empower people to fix their broken gadgets themselves, aiming to transfer skills and learn about how things are designed and made.
The Hackney Fixers organisers are James Diamond, Friederike Hanisch, Dave Lukes, Bridget Harvey and Kathryn Packer.
