Do you have something which needs repairing? It's the first Repair Cafe Sandbach of 2026. Held at St Peters' Church Hall, Elworth with parking and disabled access, the event takes place from 11 am until 2 pm.

This session they will be supporting the #Tubs2Pubs campaign by acting as a collection point for sweet tub recycling, bring them along on the day and we will take care of the rest (you can read more about this campaign here: Tub2Pub | Greene King for Good).

It's also an opportunity to meet new people and you can enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and/or home bake.

Repairs are free of charge (unless parts are required) and completed on 'best effort' basis. We are happy to accept monetary donations for a job well done.

Repair Cafe Sandbach is operated by Sandbach Partnership.
