Coming up:

Please help us run a repair cafe on Saturday 15th June 10am to 1pm at St Martin's Church, Suez Rd.  We aim to help local people extend the life of household items to reduce waste and cost.  

We are looking for: people who can undertake repairs, people to help promote the event, organise, help for an hour or more, make a cake - if you can help in anyway we would love to hear from you!  

We are supported by Cambridge Carbon Footprint who have lots of advice they can offer on running these events. Insurance and PAT testing will be taken care of.  We also have access to an extensive tool kit

  These events are lots of fun with tea, cake and chat as well as being brilliant for the community and the environment so please get involved.  E:coleridgecf@gmail.com  

The sorts of repairs we can offer will depend on who volunteers and the idea is that you show the person bringing the item so they learn more about fixing things.  Most repairs will be booked in advance and repairers will only be asked to fix things they are comfortable repairing.  We schedule about 45mins per repair. 

We are looking for people to fix items such as hoovers and sewing machines, garden tools, basic bike repairs, simple repairs to clothing and household items and jewellery.  

At our recent afternoon tea event we collected lots of ideas for activities people would like to see in Coleridge. We are now investigating the options so watch this space.
