Fix it at the Repair Café!

Do you have broken items that you don’t want to throw away because one day you might just get around to fixing them? Did you take over an old sewing machine and you’d love to use it one da, but it just doesn’t seem to work? Is that bread maker on the blink? Coffee machine dripping, your chair wobbling or your lamp not lighting? How about that torn favourite shirt?

Come to our Repair Café! Bring your item along and while you wait enjoy a healthy homemade lunch, tea, coffee and dessert, and have a chat in our friendly community centre. We will repair your item for you for free and show you how to do it!

Saturday 21st January, 11am – 3pm, no booking needed.

Saturday 18th February, 11am – 3pm, no booking needed.

Saturday 18th March, 11am – 3pm, no booking needed.

Raise Your Voice for the Future of Forres

Transition Town Forres are reaching out to the local community for support to secure the long-term future of our home on Bogton Road and develop new and existing projects to support the local community in their economic recovery and transition to a more sustainable future.

To do this, we are applying for a Community Asset Transfer to purchase the site on which our venue and community gardens reside, from Moray Council, from whom it is currently leased, on behalf of the community.

Please fill in our survey here to offer your thoughts.

Thank you!
