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.

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.

Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.
