We have been running this computer club since last year and we want to introduce a new project - As well as getting weekly help with open source software and using the internet safely - you can learn how to make a website using the Hugo system or Wordpress.

As part of this, we are also going to do a bit of a blog writing group to share our thoughts on the positives and negatives of online communication. It's a friendly and supportive group. Just email us if you want more info or to sign up on [email protected]

🚲Bike Repair expansion- Community consultation, Sat. 9 May 2-3.30pm

We’re planning an expansion of our popular Monday evening Bike Repair drop-in and it’s important that we provide a service that suits community needs.

We would like to invite you to an informal, in-person get-together to chat over a cuppa and cake about plans and get your responses, see attached.

We will also have the pleasure of a renowned local artist joining us to create ‘Visual Minutes’ of our discussions, culminating in an artwork to celebrate this new project, hope you can join us!

Many thanks 🙏

Here’s our amended weekly timetable (Women in Workshops monthly), we’re working on additions to include soon, watch this space 👀

Times listed are when we aim to always have a skilled volunteer to help you with the activity, if you’re proficient it’s easier to skill share too.

You’re very welcome though to work on any suitable project any time we open- within reason, curtain making and bike repair don’t mix especially well!

🪡 Happy making and repairing 🪛

The next Women in Workshops drop-in is this Wednesday 1 April.

Come along and have a go at woodworking. No previous experience necessary. You can bring along your own projects or just ideas of what you want to achieve. We will be making a new display board for the makery as a basic theme for this month.
Look forward to seeing you then.

Made by volunteer Sylvia in the Wood shop from a donated shelving unit, some scrap wood and cladding pieces.

It’s a great storage unit for our many rolls of fabric, we’ve loads of lengths too- now we can see what's there and easily access it.

If you need any fabric, come to the Makery and ask to have a look- we’ve some amazing materials available for a donation to help us keep making and repairing!

Would a low cost bike & maintenance help you cycle❓Let us know❗️

Todmorden Makery, your community repair and make workshop, has an opportunity to expand our bike services.

Whether you already ride or would like to start, please take 2 minutes to complete our survey about what would help you get on your bike (and stay on).

We’re particularly interested in hearing from anyone who finds cost a barrier - whether that’s affording a bike, maintenance, or repairs.

Help us make a service that meets our community needs 🙂😊 🤗
