An update on tonight's planning meeting for our repair cafe project. We are currently looking into potential venues, connecting with other Enniscorthy community groups to identify potential fixers, find out more about insurance needs and setting down in writing the who/what/when/how/where for our first event. We are aiming for a June repair cafe all going to plan!
The Northern Ireland Resources Network have put together a short video with hints and tips on running a repair cafe (see link) which has given us some inspiration! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7OMFnkP0rA
If any members would like to join our next catch up meeting (online) 8pm Tuesday 18 April let me know by posting here and I will share a meeting link
Thanks for the productive meeting this evening, it was great to get our initial Action Plan finalised. For those that could not make it, please see attached and we will regroup again next week to for follow up on actions.
Action plan:
Timeline: When will you be able to start your project? How often will your team meet? Are there any key dates to share for the project?
Budget: You don't need to share exact prices, but please share how you're planning to spend the seed funding & what costs you're anticipating to get your project up and running:
Impact: How will your community benefit from this project? Do you have any measurable goals for your project, such as the number of people that will participate? Are you hoping to spread knowledge or increase interest in a specific subject?
Location: If your project requires physical space, have you decided the location? Do you have all necessary permission and permits to carry out your project at the chosen location?
