Feilding Repair Cafe
NEWS from the FEILDING REPAIR CAFE team - next event is this coming Saturday Oct 19 and, with Janet our book mender and David and Irene on sewing machine fixing, it looks as if we have a full team on board for our final event for 2024. So 10am - noon at the Senor Hub at 14 Bowen St.
ON another note FEILDING now has 3 drop off points to recycle empty medicine blister packs - Feilding and District Art Society and the Coach House Museum in South St have joined the Manawatū District Council. A huge thank you these community organisations trying to reduce waste.
Hope to see you with your items to fix and there will be a medicine blister pack recycling box at this Saturday's Repair CAFE
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
