Repair & Share
Free community repair café held by Repair Café Aotearoa NZ and Auckland Library of Tools!
We offer diagnosis and repair (where possible) of small electrical items, clothing and textiles, wooden items and general repair. We often have specialty repairs available.
To accommodate everyone, you will be able to see our volunteer repairers for 1 item at a time. If you have more than one item you'd like us to look at and there is enough time, you can register your second item afterwards.
Hang out, have a chat and enjoy a tea or a cup of freshly brewed coffee and a home baked treat.
Koha is welcome for refreshments and for our lovely volunteers.
Getting here:

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
