Library

Friends of Shelford library AGM

The Friends of Great Shelford Library Annual General Meeting will take place on Tuesday 20 January 2026 at 7.30 pm in the library. 

 

There will be a talk by Terri Lewis, District Library Manager for South Cambridgeshire on "Eat, Meet, Art", a project to integrate refugees into local communities.

 

Everyone is welcome to attend the meeting. Seasonal refreshments will be provided.

Environment

Great Shelford repair cafe

Feb 7 2026 2pm-5pm at Great Shelford Free Church.

Bring along your broken item and a skilled volunteer will help you fix it!  We can tackle a wide variety of repairs including electrical and electronic devices, as well as clothes and fabrics.

 

Please do book in your item for repair – this helps us plan our schedule so we can avoid people having to wait, and also means we can do our homework in advance to assess the repair.  The link to the booking form can be found on the event page on the CCF website here, and also on the 2G3S website.

 

Bookings will open on 13th December, and will close on the Monday before the event (2nd Feb) or earlier if we reach full capacity. 

 

Please note that we will not be able to replace cracked screens on phones or tablets. The repairers are brilliant and can fix a lot of things but there are no guarantees.

 

We will collect portable non-working (unfixable) electrical items and ensure these are properly disposed of.

 

We are always busiest when the cafe opens at 2pm – best to aim to arrive on time for your booked slot if you have one, or anytime between 2:15 and 4:15 if you don’t have a booking.

 

You can read more about what happens at a repair cafe in our blog post.
