This Is Tewkesbury would like to develop a database of community and public groups and activities in the Tewkesbury area. As we found out when launching the Community Day last year, there is no one reliable listing of groups, nor anyone responsible for maintaining one. This is the first iteration. We are aware of its shortcomings. Our website builder (Hostinger) has very limited database support so we have adapted a sales page, and we do not have an experienced database designer.
But it is a start, and our aim in the short-term is to produce a "quick and dirty" working example to demonstrate the potential to groups, suitably skilled volunteers and possible funders. Have a go!
Insert your search below. This can be the name of a group, a type of activity (e.g. sport, art, veterans, faith etc.) or age group.

Tewkesbury Repair Café
Repair Cafés are free events where people who have items that need repairing are put in touch with people who have the necessary skills to repair the items.
Repair is the natural way to extend a product's usable life. It reduces waste and pollution, and it saves energy, carbon emissions and finite non-renewable resources.
We will try to repair electrical goods, toys, clothing, fabrics and textiles, furniture, computers, cycles. we sharpen domestic cutlery, garden tools, scissors etc.
There is no charge for repairer's time. Donations are welcome, but we appreciate that not everyone can afford to donate.
Tewkesbury Friends Of the Earth run the café element. Tea, coffee, cake at reasonable prices. Have a hot drink whilst waiting for a repair or just pop in for a snack and a chat.
Meeting Place: Tewkesbury Baptist Church
