Happy Birthday to Tog Hackerspace! 17 years in, still asking the most important question: ‘what happens if we take it apart?’

January seems to be the month for fixing! Our friends at Creative Spark, up in Dundalk are also holding a Repair Café this Saturday (10am - 1pm). Head on over to fix your broken bits and learn some skills in the process!

At our Repair Café last weekend, we were delighted to be joined by some of the team from the Cork Repair Cafe. If Dublin is a bit too far for your broken bits, these guys hold monthly Café's around Cork. The next of these will be this Sunday in The Lough Community Centre.

What a start to 2026! 90+ items brought in, stories swapped, and skills shared at our Repair Café. Thanks to our brilliant fixers (especially those from Tog Hackerspace) and everyone who joined the fun! #DublinMaker #IrishMaker #RepairCafe #RightToRepair #CircularEconomy
