IT is hard to believe that January is nearly at an end.

So it is time for our regular round-up of events in Warrington in February.

From Harry Potter to markets and roller disco to art, there is plenty to choose from.

REPAIR CAFE >

Warrington Guardian:

IT is a phenomenon that started in the Netherlands and has now been embraced by the UK in our environmentally conscious era.

Welcome to the Repair Cafe where everything from woolly jumpers full of holes to broken toasters can be brought along to be mended or fixed – for free – while you have a cuppa and a cake.

Fairfield and Howley Neighbourhood Project at The Old School in Fairfield Street is launching the initiative on Saturday from 10am to 12pm. 

It will then run on the first Saturday of each month where a team of volunteer repair experts will be on hand to help with the likes of lamps, hair dryers, clothes, bikes, toys and crockery.

 

HARRY POTTER FUN >

Warrington Guardian:

To celebrate Harry Potter Night on February 6, LiveWire will be putting on free craft activities based around the The Triwizard Tournament.

"We’re looking forward to celebrating the wizarding world of Harry Potter at our three free events and look forward to welcoming lots of families through our doors.

"Whether you’re a Hufflepuff or a Ravenclaw, there will be plenty of fun craft activities to enjoy!"

The sessions will take place at Woolston Library and Stockton Heath library on Thursday, February 6, between 3pm and 5pm.
