Under the old oak tree at the Creswick Market.
Repair and Share Cafe bring you a coffee and cake stop, fundraising for sustainability. And, a destination for all things repair and share.
We invite you to bring along your items for fixing and join us in a celebration of community spirit and collaborative repair.
Repair skills on offer by our local expert volunteers include sewing, darning, bike fixing, small electrical, mechanical, computer, knife sharpening, good conversation, woodwork inc small furniture, baking and making.
It's more than just fixing things; it's about creating connections, learning new skills, sharing stories, and enjoying the warmth of community supporting the cause by purchasing homemade food, baked treats and great coffee.
Let's come together to support a more sustainable future, share our abundance, and make meaningful changes, one repair at a time. See you there for a morning of fun, learning, and community building!

U3A Creswick
U3As are voluntary Seniors’ Groups that provide educational recreational and social programs. Each U3A is organised by and for people who can best be described as being active in retirement or semi-retirement, the third age of our lives.
U3A Creswick was established for people in their third age who are over the age of 50 and are retired or are semi-retired. Our Mission is to provide opportunities for seniors to learn, teach, share and to give mutual support to each other in a friendly and warm environment, regardless or ethnicity, religion, ability or disability.
Our courses cover a wide range of interest areas from academic to physical and artistic activities. Our members enjoy both the intellectual engagement and the social aspect of our courses.
U3A Creswick is open to anyone who is retired or no longer working full time. No qualifications are required to join. Our courses are non-competitive, without marks or exams. We focus on enabling members to expand their knowledge in existing areas, and to explore new fields and activities.
