Macc Repair Cafe comes to the Bridgend Centre

Macclesfield Repair Cafe will be coming to the Bridgend Centre, Bollington on 24th October.

The team will repair a range of items to give them a new lease of life, including:

  • Textiles and clothing
  • Toys
  • Electrical items
  • Mechanical
  • Wooden items
  • Bicycles

If you aren’t sure if an item can be repaired, bring it along anyway!

Refreshments will also be for sale in our community cafe and our charity shop open for a good browse.

Charity Ramble cancelled

We are sorry to tell you that we have made the decision to cancel the Charity Walk this coming Sunday due to low ticket sales. It takes quite a signficant investment of time and resrouces to organise this event and it just wasn’t viable with the attendance figures that we had booked in.

We are sorry for any disappointment this may cause and we look forward to seeing you on one of our weekly walks or one of the 40 walks that will take place during the Bollington Walking Festival in September. Go to www.bollingtonwalkingfestival.co.uk for more information.

£35,000 reached

We are thrilled to announce that we have now met our £35,000 for 35 years target!

A HUGE thank you goes to everyone who donated to the campaign. Every single one of you have been vital in ensuring that the Bridgend Centre remains open six days per week for anyone who needs us.

Could you help shape the future of the Bridgend Centre?

Did you know that over one million people donate their time nationally to be a Trustee? This week is Trustees Week and we should celebrate the people who take on the responsibility and give up their time to ensure that the charity sector continues to support the most worthy causes in our society.

A huge thanks goes to our Board of Trustees who support us every day of the year without looking for any personal recognition or reward apart from the satisfaction that they are helping their community.

The Bridgend Centre is currently looking to recruit two new Trustees. Do you have some skills and experience that you think you could bring to the table? Click here for more information: https://bridgendcentre.org.uk/could-you-help-shape-the-future-of-the-bridgend-centre/
