Repair service: Bring along an item and have it fixed by skilled volunteers (slots limited, first come first served).
Free repair workshops: From simple repair demos to rewiring a plug, these sessions are suitable for complete beginners, including children over 8yrs if accompanied by an adult.
Model-making from salvaged electronic waste: Turn e-waste into art in our creative model-making sessions, suitable for children aged 8+ (if accompanied by an adult) and adults.
Opportunity to hear about the Fixing Factoryand how you can get involved.

Accessibility
There's no parking onsite. We encourage people to take public transport or cycle (there is bike storage onsite). If coming from Harringay Green Lanes or Manor House at night, we suggest walking via Hermitage Road as it's residential all the way, so is better lit.
Haringey Fixing Factory is unfortunately not wheelchair accessible, as the building is upstairs. However, if you are interested in visiting us and are unable to use stairs, please get in touch with our workshop manager at isaac.winson@wearepossible.org and we will let you know about suitable opportunities. We would love to hear from you.
If you need any help attending or booking onto an event at the Haringey Fixing Factory, pop in and see us during an activity (details above), or email our workshop manager at isaac.winson@wearepossible.org.
