Community action through repair and reuse in Mernda

Sustainability Victoria

In the journey to a climate resilient circular economy, you can never underestimate the power of community.

From its very beginning, Mernda Repair Cafe has had community action at its heart. Its focus is educational and practical, empowering locals to repair and reuse household items that would have otherwise ended up in landfill. It's supported almost completely by skilled volunteers who repair electronics, bikes, clothes and other household and personal items.
