Brixworth Community Repair Shed – needs volunteers

Brixworth Parish Council and Cllr Harris are exploring ideas to get a local Brixworth‑based Repair Shed off the ground — but they need people with skills to make it happen!

They are looking at how they can create a welcoming space where residents can bring broken items to be repaired rather than replaced. It’s a great way to share knowledge, reduce waste, and connect with others.

They are looking for volunteers to help make this a reality with skills such as:

Sewing and textiles
Electrical and small appliance repair
Bicycle maintenance
Woodwork and carpentry
Computer and tech troubleshooting
General DIY and tool use
Toy repairs
Furniture repair & upcycling
Mechanical skills
Mobile phone basics

If you have a skill and a bit of free time — and you’re interested in supporting this project — please leave your details by completing the form  Brixworth Repair Shed – Skilled Volunteer Interest Register – Fill in form or contacting Cllr Christine Ware – christine.ware@westnorthants.gov.uk
