The Bib of Things opens new workshop on Knüwerweg in Bochum!

Knüwerweg 2, 44795 Bochum, Deutschland - The "Bib of Things" has now found a new home at Knüwerweg 2 in Bochum. After a time of uncertainty, during which the tool and device rental was only reached to a limited extent in the Witteler passage, the operators are happy that the rental runs again under regular conditions. This reports the Bochum Journal, which informs about the return of the popular facility.

The move to the new address was made possible by the active support of the environmental service Bochum (USB). This underlines the sustainable concept behind the "Bib of Things", which not only offers a wide range of tools and devices, but also focuses on the idea of resource conservation. Many shelves are already accessible and a comprehensive expansion of the infrastructure is underway.

a place for creative projects

Special attention is also paid to the planned establishment of a repair café. Here, interested parties have the opportunity to realize their own projects on the inside or to repair defective items under the guidance. This form of community repair is not only a good way to deal with resources sustainably, but also promote exchange and learning. With a coffee or tea there is often a relaxed atmosphere in which repair knowledge can be passed on.

The concept of repair cafes, which was caused by the cause in Amsterdam, emphasizes the importance of repair knowledge for sustainability. Many things that are often regarded as waste could be repaired. Volunteers are ready to support visitors: to support their objects in the inside - be it with clothing, furniture or electrical devices. This makes the value of the repair culture visible again. Information on this initiative can be found at repaircafe.org
