The City of Stonnington has a new 'Roving Repair' program for Stonnington, which launched in May 2024. Moving to a circular economy has changed how we think about waste, and the workshops will have repairers with a range of skills in objects such as textiles, wood, crockery and jewellery onsite to support you in developing skills and confidence to repair beloved items instead of throwing them away. Even though the next upcoming
Roving Repair Workshop has sold out, this serves to alert you to the fact that this service exists, so stay in touch with the City of Stonnington for the next upcoming event. The events are free, however they always require booking - for numbers. If you'd love to engage as a repair volunteer, they're always happy to hear from you, and you'll find all the deets via the given
link .
The
St Kilda Repair Cafe is another service you may have an interest in. There are two
upcoming events on
10 Nov and
8 Dec 2024. Unfortunately, the event on 13 Oct had to be cancelled due to maintenance work. Stay in touch via
Facebook for updates. Again, though this is a free service, donations are very much appreciated by the volunteers who come together once a month to help the local community reduce their broken items going to landfill by trying to repair them and live more sustainably by giving their items a second life. Again, they're also looking out for volunteers of all ages and all knowledge levels. If you're keen to go along and help out, they'd love to hear from you. Follow the links for the 2 dates of the repair cafe (10 Nov & 8 Dec) to find out more about the event.
