Make Do and Mend

Whether it's a toaster, a bike or a garden rake, we meet the repairers in Pembrokeshire who are keeping our household items out of landfill.

We live in a throw away society but if we're to tackle the climate emergency that we face our habits have to change. This week, we're in Pembrokeshire where communities are coming together to reduce household waste and instead - make do and mend! Pauline Smith visits the Big Repair Cafe at Scolton Manor where experts from across the county have come together to repair things like bikes; textiles; ceramics; electricals - you name it they'll find a way to fix it! We also visit the Library of Things in Haverfordwest where you can borrow items and drop into TYF Adventures in St David's where we hear how organisations are working closely together, as part of the Pembrokeshire Circle, to benefit the community
