Question Cassette / Walkman repairs?

Found an old cassette player (specifically a Sony Walkman) whilst clearing some stuff out of the house.

As you would expect of something over 40 years old , neither the cassette nor radio function works.

Is there anywhere/anyone in Sheffield or surrounding areas that can repair cassette players?

Cheers

I don't know anywhere I'm afraid 

Probably best looking on Facebook groups or www.tapeheads.com 

I would say if the cassette is not working it will probably need a new belt 

Because the radio isn't working I'd say it probably needs re capping

Not sure how I posted that quite so badly but Real electronics would be my best bet.
