//Repair Café Sandbach – Launch

Date: Saturday 16th September

Time: 11am until 2pm

Location: New Horizons (part of Unity Methodist Church) Crewe Road, Wheelock, CW11 3RT

The first Sandbach Repair Café took place on Saturday 16th September from 11am to 2pm at New Horizons, Unity Methodist Church, Wheelock, Sandbach.

We hope to continue every 3rd Saturday of the month at alternate venues between Wheelock and St Peters’ Church Hall, Elworth. Both locations have ample parking and good disabled access.

Repair Cafés are all about repairing things. You bring your broken items from home and our Fixers, who are unpaid local volunteers, will try and repair your item. You are invited to watch the repair, allowing you to take away not only your repaired item but a new shared skill!

It was a great event with over 15 items repaired and an opportunity to meet new people who enjoyed a cup of tea or coffee and/or home bake.

Anything in need of repair (other than microwaves, white goods or safety items i.e. car seats) is welcome and can usually be repaired by Repair Café volunteer specialists, including clothes, furniture, electrical appliances, bicycles, crockery, bags/luggage, computer tech, toys, et cetera.

Repairs are free of charge (unless parts are required) and completed on ‘best effort’ basis.

If you have any questions or would like to book a repair in advance of the next event please contact repaircafe@sandbachpartnership.co.uk
