Georgina from Karamu - Waipatu

This is still proving to be a very popular class so our needs for supplies continues especially for buttons, zips, cottons (any amount left on the reel is useful), iron-on stiffening and scissors as we continue to use the lovely donated fabrics. The latest creations include dresses, bags, cushion covers, shirts, tunic tops and even a lovely apron.
You are also welcome to join us on a Wednesday morning or even call in to see what we are doing and all that is on offer at Heretaunga Women's Centre. They have lovely clean toilets there for women to use and a great nursery if you are a Mum who needs a wee break in a space where your child can play, and where you can also feed or change your child in a clean and comfy environment.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
