Try a cobbler any decent one will do the job or nip down to the local stables and see if they have a furrier there.
I do know one but way out near Windsor

What type of repairs Christos?
Is it a stitching job? If so your local bootmaker will have a walking foot industrial machine that will be able to stitch heavy leather. Failing that a saddler or upholsterer would be your best bet.Those were the droids I was looking for.

Those guys you see in shopping centres that cut keys and do boot repairs are the go.

The stitching on the belt has come off and effected the belt with fair amount of wear. The buckle system requires the leather to be fairly flexible as it rounds back around itself to buckle. So the leather needs to be soft.
I could post photos but not until next week. If there is a business that does leather repair I can pass on this information.
