We had a fabulous launch of the first #Renfrewshire / #Inverclyde #RepairCafe last Saturday. 4 repairers set to tackle different items from jackets to vacuum cleaners. Some visitors are now future volunteers too! Tea/coffee made sure people connected. Thanks to local councillors for their support!

Climate breakdown will make storms like Éowyn more frequent & more intense. We know that the more fossil fuels are burned, the worse it will get. Let's save lives - by staying safe today + rapidly transitioning away from oil & gas. #StormÉowyn #JustTransitionNow

Creating a Sustainable Gryffe is a charity in Renfrewshire/Inverclyde. We aim to make the villages along the Gryffe valley more sustainable. We will launch a repair cafe in 2025, which will help keep items out of landfill and save money, while building skills and community.
