Birkenhead Repair Cafe
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 21st May | 9:00am-12:00pm
Onewa Christian Community at St Andrews Church.
172 Hinemoa Street | Birkenhead.
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, jewellery & 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: 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)
.
