So if anyone knows of a boy in SW London or can get there with ease who'd like to grasp at the opportunity to be trained by my Dad, the best skilled repairer out there (I am biased) with a job at the end of it please let us know. Where abouts in SW London? These opportunities don't come up very often! mathews 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all someone showed you and trained you then you have opened? Just spread the wealth and teach them and that should help you in return with the knowledge you helped one along the way hakeemz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robinh Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Morning All ! I have just had another request for training in shoe repairing. The enquiry has come from an independent shoe retailer in the East of England who has several shops and would like to provide an in house repair service. He is also looking to invest in new machinery as well. Is there anyone in the Lincs/Northants/Cambridge areas that might be interested in offering their services to train a new recruit?. The enquirer is willing to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
