Don't miss our monthly Repair Café!
On the last Saturday of each month you are invited to bring your broken items from home to the Repair Café at the Avenue Pavilion, to receive help with mending them.
At a Repair Café, you'll find tools, materials, and skilled volunteers to help make repairs - to clothes, electrical appliances, crockery, toys and more.
Find out more about the initiative and what to expect here and please come along between 1.30-3.30pm. You can also enjoy a cuppa and piece of cake offered by Petersfield Women's Institute!
PeCAN at the Pub
Please join us for PeCAN at the Pub on the last Wednesday of the month in The Folly Bar (find us in the area to the right of the bar, ahead of you as you walk in). We hope that offering a monthly evening gathering will enable those who have been unable to attend our Tuesday morning Eco Cafe to join us.
The gathering relocates to the Folly Upstairs on a bimonthly basis, to become a Volunteers Evening. These are in January, March, May, September, and November (with a Summer Party July/Aug and a Christmas Party in December). Everyone is welcome! Order a drink at the Folly Bar if you'd like one, and then join us upstairs for a short presentation followed by breakout groups and brainstorming.

Could YOU help us deliver for schools?
We are looking for a volunteer trustee to support and drive forward our education outreach work with children in local schools.
Our aim is to provide students of all ages with knowledge, understanding, and skills to help them navigate the future with resilience, confidence and wisdom. We want to empower them to make planet-friendly choices themselves, and enable them to amplify their voices in explaining those choices to others. Over the past two years we have delivered more than 100 transformative (and free) assemblies and workshops, reaching over 5,000 children, but with your help we could do much more.
Find out more about what's involved here.
