There are a few community group types that do work in these areas. Worth seeing if any are based around where you live:
- Repair Cafes: People bring equipment (not just tech) in for repair, and work with the person repairing it. This gets the equipment repaired and teaches repair skills
- Tool libraries: borrow tools as you would borrow books from a normal library.
- Hackerspaces/makerspaces: if you are willing to repair yourself, but don't know how, hackerspaces might have people willing to give you pointers along that journey so you aren't just googling by yourself.
