Repair Café - Onehunga

It's time to get that item fixed rather than throwing it away!

Come along to the Repair Café to get your items repaired for FREE!! It's being held at the Onehunga Community Recycling Centre, at 37 Victoria Street.

We are open from 11 am to 2pm on the last Saturday of every month.

Repair Cafés are events where you can bring broken or damaged items and locals volunteer their time and expertise to fix them for you for no charge. The idea is to encourage the concept of Repair-Renew-Reuse.

It is all part of the circular economy which is what Doughnut Economics is all about.

One of the special aspects of a Repair Café is that you get to stay with the repairer while your item is being fixed. You may even learn how to fix it yourself next time.

From past experience, about 70% of items are successfully repaired.
If you are happy with your repair, donations / koha gratefully received
to help fund future Repair Cafés.

Our volunteer repairers are ready to help with:
- Small electrical appliances
- Clothing that needs fixing
- Smaller furniture pieces that need to be repaired
- Bikes that need to be serviced
- Toys and other general items
- Laptops and other electronics

This event is sponsored by:
DEANZ - Doughnut Economics Advocates New Zealand and the Onehunga Community Recycling Centre. You can also use the visit as an opportunity to visit the op-shop at the Recycling Centre to pick up a treasure or a bargain.
