Have you got a few broken or damaged belongings hanging around that you don't know what to do with?
Well tomorrow could provide an answer with the Repair Cafe on this Saturday at 4 Wood St, Whangārei.
The Repair Cafe is an event where people bring broken and damaged belongings and local volunteer experts sit down with them and do their best to repair them.
The cafe is about bringing people together, connecting local people in their communities with others who are happy to share their skills and knowledge, saving people money and reducing the amount of material that ends up in landfills.
People throw away vast amounts of stuff. Even things with almost nothing wrong, which could get a new lease on life after a simple repair.
