Restart Project and Leicester Fixers

Restart Project is a charitable incorporated organisation based in London with the main aim ''to tackle the climate emergency by making electronics work for people, for the planet, and for longer.''

I first engaged with the Restart Project in 2015. My collaborator and I were looking for some inspiration on how to run a repair event, so we could start Leicester Fixers. We went all the way to Hackney to attend an event and meet some of the people from the Restart Project.

More in the podcast episode here. We also attended FixFest 2017 in London, FixFest UK 2018 in Manchester and Fixfest 2019 in Berlin.

FOR GOD’S SAKE, FIND SOME GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT Getting a job is just so much more than covering the end of the month, it is also about developing relationships by helping others. At the end, it is a gain ...

He was crowned. He could not look behind him neither look forward. He kept looking on a side for more or to see where others were at. So he could put more jewels on his hat. If he could only see the monster feeding on its ambitions. If he could only look at me and see the bird showing us a path to paradise. He could realise i have a flower ready to bloom, it only needs the  sunshine of its gaze for it to blossom. xxx-ooo
