Closing Loops: All about repair!
How can we get more stuff repaired and cut down on waste in our local area?
What’s a repair cafe and how do you get one up and running?
Want to start a repair enterprise and need some business knowledge to get started?
During this idea-generating workshop, we’ll discuss the problems with our current waste system. You’ll find out about successful zero-waste and repair projects happening around the country and learn from people who run repair cafes in other parts of the North West.
You’ll then be invited to collaborate on ideas for getting zero-waste repair projects up and running in North Lancashire.
One of the themes the Pots of Possibility ‘Your Pots’ grant fund looks to support is ‘repairing things currently going to waste’, and this workshop is an opportunity to boost our collective creativity around potential repair-themed projects. The second round of Pots of Possibility ‘Your Pots’ grant funding is launching in September 2024, and the Closing Loops team will be on hand during this session with more information about the fund and how to apply.
All are welcome at this repair-themed idea-generating workshop.
