Repair together instead of throwing away: The Repair-Café in Grumme
On Friday, September 11, 2026, the Repair-Café invites you to a neighborly afternoon all about repairing from 3:00 PM at the StadtTeilLaden Grumme at Ennepestraße 1 in Bochum. The format stands for lived sustainability, practical help, and encounters on equal terms. The Bochum location is supported by the Evangelical Church Congregation Bochum and the association Leben im Stadtteil e.V.; since 2024, up to ten volunteers meet there every second Friday of the month to jointly check and repair defective items.

An afternoon with tools, knowledge, and real community
The focus is not only on the repair of everyday items but also on tinkering together. The atmosphere is experienced as calm, attentive, and solution-oriented: Here it’s about hand movements, patience, and the good feeling of giving a favorite piece a second chance. The fact that around 70 percent of the items brought to the Bochum Repair-Café have been successfully repaired underlines the practical impact of the offering.

Why the format is so well received in Bochum
Repair-Cafés are part of a growing repair culture in Germany that conserves resources and avoids waste. The Bochum offering fits into this movement and combines sustainability with community work. The StadtTeilLaden Grumme location has been a hub for social work in the neighborhood since the early 1990s and is therefore a suitable place for an event experience that makes community visible.

Conclusion: An appointment for all who like to use things longer
The Repair-Café in Bochum is more than an appointment in the calendar: It is a meeting point for people who want to live sustainability in practice. Anyone who brings broken devices, small favorite pieces, or just curiosity will experience an afternoon with real added value. On September 11, 2026, it will be: come by, repair, exchange, and take with you the good feeling of having preserved something together.
