The Bower is an environmental charity committed to reducing waste going to landfill. While this includes collecting and selling secondhand goods from all around Sydney, Australia, it also means teaching, supporting, and advocating reuse and repair efforts here and around the world.
We handle furniture, appliances, household goods, salvaged building materials, bikes, books and more. It’s a treasure trove of delights with donations arriving daily!
We run hands-on workshops teaching basic carpentry, furniture restoration and upholstery and regularly hold Upcycled Art workshops for children.
Every Wednesday, The Bower holds a Repair Café where you can get technical assistance fixing dodgy electrical appliances, wobbly bikes and rickety furniture.
