All of Helmond Repairs: Get Your Items Fixed for Free from March 19 to 27
Monday, March 23, 2026
The Municipality of Helmond is participating in the national campaign "All of the Netherlands Repairs" from March 19 to 27. During this week, we are drawing extra attention to repairing or handing in broken items. Together, we can reduce the amount of residual waste.
Make Your Items Last Longer
Many items can still be repaired quite easily. This has many advantages. By repairing, you save money, produce less waste, and your items last longer. You also support local craftsmanship. This way, we are working together towards a future where we throw away less. Repairing is an important step in this process.
Get Your Items Fixed for Free
In Helmond, there are several locations, such as Repair Cafés, where you can go. Volunteers will be on hand to help you with small repairs. Think of a device that no longer works, clothes that are damaged, or a loose or broken part. Repairing is free, and you often also receive tips on how to make your items last longer.
