Castlemaine and surrounds Repair Café

The Castlemaine and surrounds Repair Café happens on the last Sunday of the month from January to November. Bring along broken household appliances, sewing repairs, toys, etc. You can also learn bicycle maintenance.

Join the Mending Circle and swap tips on crochet, darning, knitting, hand sewing, etc. or learn to do these so your clothes continue to be usable. There's also help with mobile phones, wiping information before recycling, settings etc.

Get Apple Mac advice and maybe some tinkering. If big work is needed, your computer is taken away and worked on for a fee.

Repair Cafés are about keeping things out of landfill, saving you money, and giving members of the community the opportunity to volunteer.

The Café is at Castlemaine Community House, 30 Templeton Street and runs from 10.00am to 1.00pm. Enter via the backdoor. If the Café is busy, the last item accepted is at 12.30pm. Gold coin donation is appreciated.
