Dear all!

-Phones
-Clothes

*Specific Repair times to be announced soon!

You got that toaster that doesn’t seem to toast no more? BRING IT! You got that dress that now has a hole under the arm? BRING IT! Your bike keeps making a weird noise and you don’t know where it is coming from? BRING IT!

This is all FREE.

This event is ran and supported by volunteers.

If you are a member of the RVK Tool Library and bring something to be repaired, please also bring a snack for our shared snack table.

***All donations will be used to take the volunteers for Ice Cream OR a beer, depending on how much we gather.
We can not guarantee everything will be repaired for sure, but the awesome volunteers involved in this project will surely try their best 😉

***SPECIAL EDITION!***

ALL ITEMS THAT CAN NOT BE REPAIRED WILL BE USED TO CREATE A SCULPTURE WHICH SHALL REPRESENT OUR CRITICISM ON OUR OVER CONSUMERISM WAYS AS WELL AS A REQUEST TO PUSH THE ‘RIGHT TO REPAIR’ AGENDA.

This event happens monthly at the RVK TL.
Hope to see you there!

Complex PTSD Lecture
Sep 22 @ 17:30 – 19:30

Pete Walker’s Complex-PTSD theory – What it is, how it works and ways to heal it

Pete Walker is an American psychotherapist who has specialised in the treatment of complex post-traumatic stress for over thirty years.
The lecture will mostly be based around his book ‘Complex PTSD – From surviving to thriving’ which outlines his theories about how CPTSD is formed, how it manifests psychologically, emotionally and interpersonally and his multi-dimensional approach to healing it.

This theory and it’s practical approach has been one of the corner stones in my own mental-emotional healing/growth for about 5 years and I want to share it’s main contents as well as some of my own experience with this work.
The purpose of the event is mainly to create space for education and discussion, not group therapy.

Some of the topics discussed will most likely be emotionally charged and potentially triggering for many people and I will do my best to make everybody feel as safe as possible. For example by stressing the importance of speaking from ones own experience and avoiding assuming other people’s experiences.

Among the topics discussed will be:
Trauma, triggers, emotional flashbacks, emotional violence, abusive/neglectful/dysfunctional parenting and family dynamics, different types of trauma responses, toxic-shame, guilt, anger, rage, grief and grieving, healing.
