Let's build a repair café workshop together in Jacksonville

For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a repair café workshop. This year a group of 17 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Acacia bus depot, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $2,750. It will serve about 203 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in June and everyone is invited. We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos. All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance. Where the $2,750 goes: • Tools hire and delivery: $175 • Materials: $2,250 • Safety equipment and signage: $325 If you're reading this, thank you. - Ruth
