The Bower Reuse and Repair Centres is a visionary environmental charity with a bold social mission: to reduce waste, empower communities, and promote sustainable living. Every initiative is grounded in the principles of waste avoidance—educate, reuse, repair, refurbish, and recycle—transforming environmental values into practical, community-driven action.

Across multiple workshop facilities, The Bower offers hands-on training in carpentry/woodwork, home DIY, metalwork, and more, led by expert facilitators using reclaimed materials. Our dedicated plastics department transforms discarded plastics into usable components for repair and repurposing, including through advanced techniques like 3D printing. We also operate one of Australia’s only reclaimed steel bike frame manufacturing programs, showcasing circular design in action.

In partnership with frontline agencies, we provide essential household goods to those in need, diverting significant volumes from landfill while building skills, resilience, and community.

When you take part in a workshop, you’re actively supporting our mission to create a more sustainable and equitable future.
