Payneham Community Centre

In this fun, informative and free workshop with award winning sustainable gardener, Alan Shepard, we will look at new and old methods of successfully creating compost every time.

Making compost is easy and the benefits include reducing waste, helping the environment and enriching the soil.

Book a spot to learn how to make compost and get your soil summer ready, sustainably.

Repair Cafe Payneham is a free monthly, open community event aiming to reduce waste in landfills, pass on valuable repairing knowledge, and create a sense of community. It’s a place where you can bring your broken items for fixing and learn how to fix them yourself – with the help of our skilled volunteer repairers.

Our sessions typically include electronic, electric, clothing, small furniture and general repairs.

Please note: •One item at a time – one item is permitted per person at one time. Once that item has been completed, another item may be placed in the queue •Last repairs at 11.30am – or earlier if we are very busy •No drop-off service – visitors are expected to remain with the repairer to help with the process, if possible, or learn how it is done •Donations – Our Repair Café is a free service, but we welcome donations to help us cover the costs
