January Owhiwa Road Clean Up

Saturday 11th January 2025, 10:00 – 12:00

Our first cleanup for 2025! Join us to remove dumped rubbish from our environment.
From Whangarei Heads Road Head up Owhiwa Road until you see us on the first corner.
We will be heading up Owhiwa road to do some roadside and down some banks. There is a good amount of rubbish to collect, but we may not need the usual 2 hours… or I could be wrong.

We will provide:
*high vis vests, gloves, collection gear, first aid, water

What to bring:
– Long sleeves may be beneficial while in any bushes to minimise scratches.
– Good shoes for uneven surfaces.
– Great attitude

Parking: please park with consideration to other road users.

January Repair Cafe

Saturday 18th January 1.30pm – 4pm

Reyburn Art Studio, 31 Reyburn House Lane, Town Basin, Whangārei

At our monthly events volunteers donate their time to help you repair your items.
If you know the specific part needed to repair your item, we ask that you bring it along. Please ensure you bring all the parts (plugs, cd, batteries etc) and clean out crumbs and empty water before bringing your items in.
There will be wonderful flat whites and baking to help fund the venue hire and koha is much appreciated to cover ongoing costs.

We’re happy to help you learn how to repair. We are not repair professionals, Repair Cafes are a community self-repair space. Attending means that you take responsibility for your own item.

Repair skills available this month :

Knitwear, clothing, heavy-duty sewing, tool and knife sharpening, electrical repair, general repair, wood working and teddy surgery

 

We welcome new volunteers, what ever your skills we can use your help.
