This is Jane. She's from Ireland and she's lovely. Jane was studying product design at RCA London when she had an idea: "I don't want to buy new stuff all the time. I want to hack the stuff I already have so it works better for me." So she phoned some clever materials scientists called Ian and Steve and together they invented an interesting new material for hacking things better. It's called sugru and is a little bit brilliant.

Make your stuff last.
sugru can help you dramatically prolong the life of your stuff. By applying, in some cases, even a teeny tiny bit to your things, you get to keep them for much longer and decrease your impact on our wee world. Repair with gusto!
Hack it perfect (for you)
Why are so many mass-produced products just so bad? Uncomfortable tin openers, leaky trainers, they get our goat! Why should you have to spend £20 on a designer tin opener?? You shouldn't! Hack the one you have instead. Power to the (handy) people!
