Learn to Sew and Tuesday Tips for Reuse
We are so happy to be offering small scale workshops at the Centre over the next 2 months thanks to Auckland Council. (Covid permitting). For now we will keep going forward.
.
Simple solutions to single use are our focus for Tuesday Tips, from home made cleaners to shopping bags, bunting to cutlery holders for celebrations. Basic sewing machine skills are required but if you don't have them yet then join one of our Learn to Sew sessions in the afternoon where you will learn to thread a machine, wind a bobbin and learn straight and zigzag stitches on the machine. These are FREE workshops and all materials will be supplied, donations are gratefully accepted to keep the van running and the insurances covered and all those other basics that we need.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
