This Saturday, and every Saturday!

Today we are fixing small electronics, wooden items, clothing, soft toys, bikes and general repairs. Have something weird that doesn't fit in a category? Try us!

Hang out, have a chat and enjoy a fresh-baked snack and a tea or a cup of freshly brewed coffee from Kokako Organic Coffee. Koha is welcome for refreshments and for our lovely volunteers.

Once or twice a month we also offer home electrical appliance repairs, when our electrician is with us. Watch the ALoT Facebook page or the Repair & Share event discussion for announcements!

Getting here:
Bus stops on Ponsonby Rd (InnerLink, 20, 105, 106, 866), Great North Rd (11T/W, 18, 20, 195), and Karangahape Rd (WX1)
We are also near the northwestern cycleway.
Limited free parking is available next door or on side streets. There is no parking directly in front of ALoT/Hackland.

Some things to note:
∙ One item at a time please. You are welcome to bring a second item, and can check in that item after your first piece has been assessed/repaired.
∙ Make sure to come early, so you can get your item registered in time.
∙ We don't work with microwaves.
∙ We do not do clothing alterations, only repairs and mending jobs.

If you would like to help out, we'd love to hear from you! We need skilled repairers, reception, photography and story-finding, cafe help, baking, first aid and more. Send us a message to find out how you can help!
