Description/Abstract:

This report presents the results of a survey of Farnham Repair Café visitors (e.g. product owners) and volunteers (e.g. repairers and organisers). The survey was undertaken in February 2016 by The Centre for Sustainable Design (CfSD) at the University for the Creative Arts (UCA) in Farnham in the UK. Farnham Repair Café (FRC) is a collaborative project between CfSD at UCA and Transition Town Farnham (TTF). FRC is one of a global network of one thousand Repair Cafés in 24 countries which are part of The Repair Café Foundation International, founded in the Netherlands in 2007 by Martine
Postma as a way of actively promoting sustainability in local communities. Repair Cafés offer a free meeting place for people to bring products in need of repair and to work together with volunteer repairers from the local community, to fix broken products.
