A stitch in time saves nine, as the saying goes – and it might save you some cash too.

Medway's Repair Café sessions are free to attend and offer expert advice on fixing anything from clothes to electrical goods, bikes, furniture and much more besides. Our friendly volunteers love fixing your stuff and are happy to show you how to as well.
