Today, this venue is part of the Keynsham Heritage Open days.
We’re looking forward to helping you repair your things. It’s a little different to “before” so please read and respect the requests from our volunteers, who kindly and generously give their time, materials and skills to help others in their community.

- CLEAN IT – If you are bringing clothes or anything fabric, please wash it, and please empty hoovers. We don’t fix dirty things!
- BAG IT – please bag it and put it to one side, along with any cables, spare parts, bits that have fallen off, or anything it needs to make it work or work with.
On Saturday, come along, register, and we’ll invite you into the repair room when we're ready to help you - we will be keeping the repair room as empty as possible.
- Keep your distance, use hand gel, and please wear a mask – many of our volunteers have underlying health conditions, or care for those who do. This small request will help ensure our volunteers stay safe and can help others, as well as helping you.
- As usual, we require that you stay with your object. Please read the rest of the info below too – more tips to help you to help us fix your object.
WHERE? Baptist Church, Keynsham High Street. If the weather is good, we will register people outside. The Church café will be open for tea, coffee, cake and bacon rolls.
We hope to have volunteers to help with simple electrics, electronics, plus engineering (mechanical), high street jewellery, simple laptop/software and device issues, general tinkering, glueing and textiles.
Please bring any "spare parts" that you know will be needed, or we can suggest where you might source them - or just turn up and we'll do our best together!
Things we don't do: microwaves (just too dangerous, sorry, unless it's a mechanical issue.) We don't do home visits. We don't take items in for us to sell/store/give away.
If you are bringing something "unusual" to be fixed, feel free to message us first.
We recommend you turn up when the cafe starts to have the best chance of having your item fixed!
Repairs are free. A donation helps to cover the costs of consumables our volunteer repairers use.
#KeynshamSpecialSecondSaturday - the second Saturday of the month also welcomes #KeynshamFramersMarket to the town, plus Wild About Flowers usually have a courtyard market when the weather is good.
Would you like to volunteer? Please get in touch! [email protected]
Thank you!
