The Repair Shop - At Christmas 2025
This programme is subject to a clarification. The Kindertransport was the organised evacuation of approximately 10,000 children, the majority of whom were Jewish, from Germany, Austria and Czechoslovakia.
It’s Christmas at the barn, and the doors are thrown wide open to welcome special guests Helen Mirren, Julia Donaldson and Rob Brydon, who bring in treasured items in need of repair.
