The Team from Highbury Community House Inc

Do you have small item that needs to be repaired?

A broken kettle, necklace or hem on your favourite dress is unraveled?

Bring them along to our Repair cafe;

Saturday 30th July | 9:00am-12:00pm

Onewa Christian Community at St Andrews Church.

We have various volunteers who are donating their time to repair your items that you have been storing away not knowing what to do with them.

Accepted on the day will be small appliances, general repairs, jewelry & clothing.

There will be a children's activity, tea and coffee for that neighbourly chat and a talk on book repairing.

Nothing to repair? Pop in and have a look around, meet your local community.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

Any clothing that you bring will need to be washed.

Please bring anything that you need fixed to your broken item, for example a new zip or new plug attachment.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

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