Here are our top picks for the coming days.

1. Repair Cafe

It's the third Saturday of the month which means it is time for Kenilworth's Repair Cafe.

Head to Abbey Hill United Reform Church for the free community event and get your broken items mended.

"Remember if you can carry it in or pedal it, we'll have a look at it," organisers said.

"Our brilliant volunteers with skills in DIY repairs, electrical and electronics, toys, bicycles, simple sewing and jewellery, will be available to help you to fix your clean, portable items. 

"We can't promise to mend everything but at least together we can have a good go to keep stuff out of landfill."

2. Markets

As well as Kenilworth's weekly Thursday market at Abbey End, our partners CJ's Events Warwickshire are bringing back the Leamington Christmas Markets this weekend.

"With over 90 incredible traders, you'll find everything from unique arts & crafts to delicious local produce and mouth-watering street food," the team said.

"There's truly something for everyone — whether you're on the hunt for the perfect gift, a festive treat, or just want to soak up the magical atmosphere."
