The Whitley Repair Workshop recently launched on the 1st July. The group meets on the first Friday of every month at New Directions South Reading.
The workshop is free and members of the public are invited to bring in small electrical and mechanical items to be repaired. We are looking for a volunteer to help the main organiser.
You will need to enjoy practical tasks and speaking to members of the public.
Tools will be provided for you.
