Grand OpeningThe Repair Cafe was officially opened on Saturday February 26 by Mayor John Leggett and Bishop Steve Maina.
The event was covered by the Marlborough Express. |
AboutA Blenheim Nativity Church initiative, the Repair Café is a free pop-up event for anyone to bring items in for repair.
The Marlborough community faces a challenge to deal with waste in ways that reduced what we send to landfill and protects the environment for future generations. It is predicted that Marlborough’s current landfill facility will be full by 2047 and it is imperative we find a way to reduce, reuse, recycle and repurpose now. |
Volunteers welcomePeople from our local community volunteer their time to fix old items for the community for free, with the aim of reducing waste, helping the environment and saving people money.
We are looking for fix it people, welcomers and hospitality helpers. If you can help, please |
