Ladies' Home Repair Workshop
For Women · Beginners WelcomeA half-day, hands-on workshop for women of all ages and backgrounds: practical home-repair skills and real confidence, taught in a relaxed, friendly space. No experience needed.
Small groups, hands-on tools, and two facilitators: a qualified Gas Safe engineer and a dedicated lead for female support. Places are limited each date.
Hands-on from minute one
For Women of All Ages & Backgrounds.
A friendly, judgement-free space to build real skills, whatever your starting point.
Small, supportive groups
Kept deliberately small so everyone gets proper hands-on time.
Step-by-step guidance
Taught at a pace that works, in a warm and friendly space.
Hands-on with real tools
Learn by doing, not just watching: every attendee gets practice time.
Skills for life
Leave with practical know-how you'll use again and again.
One Call-Out Costs More Than This Entire Workshop.
Learn it once, and you'll never need to pay someone else to do it again.
Typical UK call-out fee for a single simple job, before parts or labour time is even added.
- One fix, one visit, one bill
- Waiting in for a tradesperson
- Next issue costs you again
One half-day, in person, hands-on, and the skills are yours for good.
- Nine practical skills, not one
- Small group, real tools, real practice
- Use it again and again, for free
Call-out figures are a general UK indication for comparison only, not a quote or a guarantee of savings; actual tradesperson pricing varies by location, provider and job.
Nine Skills. One Afternoon.
Every skill is taught hands-on, in a small group, with tools in front of you.
Basin & Sink Waste
Clean it, clear a blockage, and replace a waste fitting without a call-out.
Using a Drill Safely
Confidently drill, screw and mount shelves, brackets and fixtures at home.
Changing a Tap
Remove and fit a replacement kitchen or bathroom tap the right way.
Stopping a Leak
Find the source of a leak fast and stop it before it spreads or damages your home.
Taking Off a Radiator
Safely remove a radiator so you can decorate behind it, and refit it properly.
Bleeding a Radiator
Fix cold spots at the top of a radiator and keep your heating running efficiently.
Topping Up a Boiler
Check and top up boiler pressure correctly, and avoid an unnecessary call-out.
Gas Safety Awareness
Understand what's safe to check yourself at home, and what always needs a Gas Safe engineer.
Plugs & Fuses
Wire a plug and change a fuse correctly and safely, without guesswork.
What This Workshop Is, And Isn't
This is a half-day, practical homeowner-skills workshop. It's designed to build everyday confidence around your home; it is not a trade qualification, and it does not certify or register you to carry out professional work.
The gas safety module is awareness only: what to look out for, and when to stop and call a professional. Any gas installation, repair, or servicing must always be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer; this workshop does not qualify or authorise you to do that work yourself.
Led by People Who Know the Trade, and How to Support You.
Amar teaches construction and engineering at further education level and works as a qualified, Gas Safe registered engineer and assessor. He brings that same trade-level know-how into a relaxed, small-group setting, built for beginners, not tradespeople.
Tahira is there throughout every workshop, making sure the space stays comfortable, friendly and judgement-free for every attendee, from your first question to your last repair.
