On Saturday 15 October we celebrate the 6th International Repair Day, a day to promote and celebrate the value of fixing. The theme for this year’s edition is Repair Everywhere.
There’ll be ways for everyone to get involved, from novices to experts. However people choose to join in, we’ll ask everyone to share what they’re doing, so that social media feeds are flooded with images and stories of repair. By talking about repair more, we can encourage people to think differently next time something breaks.
