Given that a new one is £79 on Amazon you might struggle to get it repaired for less. I'm not sure what the going rate for labour is these days but that and the cost of any parts that need replacing would probably be more than a replacement.

i asked in a camera shop a few years back on a £100 camera, they wanted £35 to look at it with no guarentee, they did say they would take the £35 towards any repair needed, most things are not worth getting fixed these days hence the lack of repair shops.

As others have said it's probably not worth getting fixed, but if you want to give it a try I used a company called Newark Video Services to repair my camera (also a lens issue) 3 years ago. I had to pay £20, plus the postage cost, for the initial investigation, which was taken off the final repair bill. I have a slight doubt whether they are still in business, I'm pretty sure they had a website when I used them but the only thing I can find now is this:

I dropped mine immediately after taking it out of the box. Doh.
