LISBON REPAIR MAP
After a few weeks of gathering all your Repair recommendations, we now present to you our initial Lisbon Repair Map!We scanned the web for other Repair Maps available for Lisbon residents, and they were either outdated or difficult to use.
So, with the purpose to provide the community with something useful,
and to also support local small businesses and the circular economy,
the Lisbon Repair Map has 30+ tried-and-tested-by-the-community places to repair your clothes, furniture, electronic items, among other things.On Mapotic, you can filter by item type, as well as click on the pins to choose a location near to you. It is also mobile-friendly, which helps when you are on the go.If you'd like to send us more recommendations for Repair shops,
send us a direct message with a description and a picture, so we can add it to the map.Please don't forget to send us your feedback after using it.
If enough people find it useful, we can look for funding to amplify this Map further, create a more formal page or website, have a storytelling piece with the local owners, and even develop this Map into a social project.Happy Repairing!
Agenda this month
Each month we compile a comprehensive agenda of events, workshops and other things of interest that are going on around us. We hope to raise awareness, support our local community and change the way we interact with our clothes and our environment.
