Repair electronics
Before recycling, selling or donating your old electricals – how about getting them fixed?
Repairing old tech – your options
Old kettle in need of a new element? Phone needing a new screen? If your device has developed a fault you might be able to get the manufacturer to repair or replace it. Failing that, remember it can be cheaper to pay to have something fixed than to buy new. Usually better for the planet too. Or you might fancy learning how to make do and mend for yourself.
