Dunedin Public Libraries Home Service

Dunedin Public Libraries’ Home Services provides a free, personalised library service for individuals who are unable to visit a library or Bookbus. The service delivers books, movies, music, and other library materials directly to customers' homes, ensuring they can continue to enjoy the library’s resources.

Sweet Louise provides practical, emotional, and social support for New Zealanders living with incurable breast cancer. Experienced Support Coordinators offer one-on-one care, while social events and an online support group foster connections. The organisation also provides emergency vouchers for essentials and treats to create special memories. Supporting 800 members and their families nationwide, Sweet Louise helps improve quality of life every day.
The Crooked Spoke
​
Crooked Spokes is a not-for-profit, volunteer-run DIY bicycle workshop in Dunedin. You can use their tools to fix your bike, with volunteers available to offer guidance. If you don’t have a bike, there are plenty available for a koha. Donations of bikes and parts are always welcome, and the focus is on skill-sharing, offering assistance and advice when needed.
