Description
Steve Regester, UWE Electronics Mechatronics Technical Team Lead, will take a look at any items you bring along and see if he can mend them or fashion them for reuse in another way. Note that he can't do much with leaky kettles!
As the session is in our newly opened sustainability hub, why not take the opportunity to bring along something to donate or swap in our reuse shop. And if you have a problem with your mobile or digital notebook, bring that along too and see if our new student business on campus 'Fixmycrack' will be able to help.
With prices below those of the high street and quick turnaround, they are proving invaluable on campus.
