Raumati South Repair Cafe this Sunday
Do you have an item at home waiting to be repaired? The Raumati South Repair Cafe returns this Sunday 19 February 10am–1pm at Raumati South Scout Hall.
Repairs come in all shapes and sizes from sewing and mending to electrical items and IT troubleshooting – the repair cafe's talented crew of volunteers will do their best to help repair your items. At the initiative's last event in November, more than 70 Kāpiti locals brought in 152 items to be fixed. That's a lot of well-loved possessions given a new life and saved from landfill!
This event is proudly brought to you as part of our No8 Wire programme – find out more at www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
