REPAIR CAFE at ReStore, Habitat for Humanity in Tahuna, Saturday 19 JUNE 2021
Repair Cafes are community events which match people with broken household items with skilled volunteers or specialists who like fixing things. We're fixing items and building community. Come along and you might pick up some new fixing skills.
You will be able to bring household items for smaller repairs – examples include:
Bicycles
Electrical repairs (NO large appliances, microwaves and electric blankets)
Small furniture or miscellaneous household items
Toys
Clothing & leather
Tool maintenance
One item will be accepted per household, although if it’s not too busy, additional items may be repaired. It will be at the discretion of the Repair Café and the volunteers as to whether an item is suitable for repair, and you’ll be encouraged to observe and engage so that you can pick up new skills too.
Whilst you’re visiting, it’s also a great opportunity to browse the extensive ReStore shop and grab a coffee at their café.
If you want to join in as a repairer or a helper (meet & greet, runner) you would be very welcome and fed coffee and cake!! Contact me through Neighbourly.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
