Get knackered goods as good as new at Acomb Repair Cafe
Is your family home bunged up with broken items you’ve been thinking of binning? Would you like to save your damaged clothes or goods from the tip, but simply don’t have the time, tools, funds, or know-how to carry out the necessary repairs yourself?
If so, you could be in luck! Taking place on the third Sunday of every other month at Acomb Methodist Church, Acomb Repair Cafe offers families based in the West of York the chance to repair a wide range of items, with no charge necessary (although donations are most welcome)! Backed by the Greater Acomb Community Forum, these regular repair workshops help local people to ‘waste not, want not’ and benefit from the expertise of an experienced team of volunteer fixers, who can turn their capable hands to fixing almost anything, from electrical goods and home appliances to toys, clothes, and more!
Last month’s Cafe followed a bike theme, perfect for a range of local families from those keen on sprucing up knackered old push-knackers for daily commuting to those seeking to fix neglected mountain bikes for pleasure and fitness, or children’s two-wheelers for the school run – the Acomb Repair Cafe came in handy once again!
The Acomb Repair Cafe will run on the third Sunday of every other month from 10.00am to 1.00pm at Acomb Methodist Church, YO24 3BX. Follow Greater Acomb Community Forum on Facebook or visit www.greateracomb.org.uk to find out more.
