Repair Cafe
Mernda Neighbourhood House welcomes the community to be part of the Repair Café Program - a service for the community of Whittlesea. We hope to share the joys of Repairing and Upcycling your treasured items by keeping them in circulation for longer. These events will be held monthly and will be family-friendly, inclusive and cross-cultural community events.
What is a Repair Café?
It is a place you can bring your broken stuff to receive a new lease on life. At the repair cafe, skilled volunteers perform simple repairs on all kinds of personal items that would otherwise be thrown out. Whilst at the repair cafe you sit with the repairer while they talk you through what they're doing. It's a collaborative process so you can see how fun and easy it is to fix your own stuff at home.
