Park City’s free Fix-It Clinic offers help for broken belongings

A broken gadget or a torn piece of clothing might still have some use left in it. Recycle Utah’s next free Fix-It Clinic brings volunteer repairers to Park City Library on Saturday, November 21, from 9 a.m. to noon.

Tell the fixers what you’re bringing

The organizer lists electronics, clothing, eyeglasses and jewelry among the items volunteers can help with. Register ahead and describe the problem so the team can plan for the tools and repair skills it will need.

Repairers will assess each item. Some belongings may be beyond what the clinic can fix, but the visit gives you a chance to learn about the repair while working with someone who has experience.

Handy with a repair? Lend a hand

Recycle Utah also welcomes volunteers. Its Tinker Team works on repairs at the clinics and on donated items for the nonprofit’s thrift store. You can join the team through the organizer’s interest form.
