White said giving back to the community when you can is important – which also corresponds with The Wairarapa Handyman’s tagline “a helping hand when you need it.” Stevens extended her gratitude to Bryan White of The Wairarapa Handyman, who came to the rescue and fixed the shop’s back door, free of charge. She did not confirm if any items were taken from the store.
