"We've diverted 694 kg of waste from landfill and delivered repair workshops teaching people how to make their own repairs."
Whittlesea Community Connections runs the Mernda Repair Cafe, where volunteers repair everyday items like bikes, clothing, furniture, and electronics. This cafe, supported by SV funding, encourages people to re-use, repair and recycle rather than throw away valuable resources.
