This is what we love about Repair and Care Café, people sharing what they know, learning from each other and keeping good stuff going for longer.

Such a cool way to kick off Repair Festival Aotearoa 2026 here in Central Otago.

Word of mouth is such a powerful way to grow this kaupapa, please share your experience, tell your friends and whānau, and bring someone along to next Cafe in October at Alexandra Community House.
