We’re excited to let you know that our next Repair Care Café is just around the corner! This Saturday May 3rd 10am – 2pm at Alexandra Community House. 🛠️ Repair Care Café – Community Event
This is a fantastic opportunity for people across our community to bring along broken or worn items and get friendly support to fix, repair, upcycle, or problem-solve them — rather than throwing them away.
We’ll have skilled volunteers helping with:
- Sewing and mending clothing
- Bike maintenance including eBikes
- Small appliance and electrical repairs (by qualified volunteers)
- Building fixes and DIY advice
- Sports gear repairs (pumping up balls etc.)
- Jewellery fixes
- Tech help for digital devices (laptops, tablets, phones…)
- Knife and tool sharpening (please bring paper to wrap after they are sharpened)
- Wool mending and knitting
Sport Central will also be joining us with their Share Your Gear initiative – bring along any good quality sports gear you'd like to donate, or come and find something to help you and your whānau get active.
