Grateful thanks to our founder
After four years of dedicated service, Trevor Carpenter has stepped down from his role as Director of Lindfield Repair Café.
We extend our sincere thanks to Trevor for his vision, commitment, and leadership in establishing the Repair Café and nurturing it into a valued community initiative. His passion for sustainability, repair, and community connection has laid a strong foundation that will continue to guide our work.
Our cafés will continue to run monthly led by our committee of volunteers, and as we move forward, we do so with gratitude for Trevor’s contribution and a commitment to carrying his vision for sustainability into the future.
Please direct any questions to a member of the committee
There are many volunteer roles allowing you to get involved, giving as little or as much as suits you. You can offer your skills as a repairer, work in the café, admin, marshalling or help out in the background answering queries, bookkeeping or supporting our marketing team. We can support DofE students who are looking for a volunteer position

⦁ In our Community Lounge we shall be hosting some young local entrepreneurs who will be selling crafts that they have made themselves. As we love to encourage young people, we will be offering more such opportunities over the following year.
⦁ In the Kids’ Room, there will be a chance to make and create using various craft skills. All part of encouraging them to avoid waste, the ethos of Lindfield Repair Café. Perhaps they will become our future repairers!
Lindfield Repair Café is a non-profit Community Interest Company project based in Lindfield. Our goal is to reduce waste by providing a volunteer-based repair service and community café to anyone in the Lindfield area. If you have something that needs fixing, just pop into one of our monthly repair café events and we’ll do our very best to have it back to you in working condition in no time at all. Remember you don't have to be a Lindfield resident, we are pleased to welcome visitors from across the mid-Sussex area.
The Repair Café cannot guarantee that they will be able to repair all items brought in but they will always have a go and offer advice, Spare parts for repairs are not supplied so if you need a new zip or bulb fitted it may be worth purchasing one before you come along.
