Kia ora and welcome to the Repair Café Community! We are excited to hear from you and that you are considering starting a Repair Café in your community.
Repair Network Aotearoa (RNA) developed the Repair Café Aotearoa Handbook (photo on the left), which is a living document, offering a wealth of repair community experience. You will find guides and practical ideas in this handbook, including a Volunteer Kit with documents that may require updating from time to time, as well the Repair Café Forms Pack. This link takes you to the GiveaLittle page where you can place your donation to purchase the Handbook and its associated documentation.
We will then get in touch with you and help you set up your Repair Café. We look forward to sharing with you 😊
Repair Café Aotearoa NZ has a Memorandum of Understanding with the International Repair Café Foundation in which we agree to mention the Repair Café International Starter Kit for Repair Cafés on our website, so that any New Zealand Repair Café that wishes to benefit from the international materials can do so.
Repair Café Aotearoa NZ offers support in establishing new Repair Cafés in Aotearoa, New Zealand. We are happy to chat and help. Contact us
