Do you have an item at home waiting to be repaired? The Raumati South Repair Cafe returns this Sunday 19 February 10am–1pm at Raumati South Scout Hall.

Repairs come in all shapes and sizes from sewing and mending to electrical items and IT troubleshooting – the repair cafe's talented crew of volunteers will do their best to help repair your items. At the initiative's last event in November, more than 70 Kāpiti locals brought in 152 items to be fixed. That's a lot of well-loved possessions given a new life and saved from landfill!

This event is proudly brought to you as part of our No8 Wire programme – find out more at www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

It's been heartening to see Aotearoa New Zealand rally around the communities most impacted by Cyclone Gabrielle – and our people here on the Kāpiti Coast are no exception.

Since the disaster is so far from our region and many communities are experiencing roading issues and isolation, the official advice is that physical supplies are not recommended at this point.

Wednesday 15 February marked the end of our summer zones for horses and longline fishing. Ngā mihi to everyone who helped keep all beach users safe during this period.

Please continue riding your horses in a safe and careful manner below the high-tide mark, and away from ecological sites such as dunes and estuaries. We also ask people using surfcasters, kontiki, kite, drone and other longline fishing gear to make sure your equipment is always monitored and visible to other beach users.

Summer zones for dogs remain in place until the end of daylight saving (2 April 2023). For more information on summer zones and how we can all look after our local beaches, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
