In Ireland, Habitat brings people together from across the community to serve the most vulnerable and raises funds to support long-term partner programmes in some of the world’s poorest communities.
Meet the volunteers
Habitat for Humanity ReStore will be at the show all weekend. Find out more at www.habitatireland.org/restore
The key community benefits are:
Low income families have access to low cost home improvement materials
Opportunities for people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities to learn new skills, build positive relationships and improve well being
Tons of material diverted from landfill protecting the environment
ReStore is a unique, holistic workplace; where everybody has something to contribute and something to gain from serving the wider community.
Since opening the first ReStore in Europe over 10 years ago in Lisburn, there are now 4 stores in Northern Ireland with a 5th opening in Belfast in Spring 2023. Last year Habitat opened the first ReStore in the Republic of Ireland in Drogheda. ReStores have a significant impact for local people and the wider community.
The government has key targets for recycling and waste reduction; ReStore provides an opportunity to deliver on the ‘Green agenda’ and advocate for a more sustainable future. ReStore provides a platform for companies to be more socially and environmentally responsible. Materials donated are not further processed, but reused, which is a significant advantage for the environment.
With 3 events running throughout the year in Belfast, Dublin & Cork and on average 40,000 visitors in total, this is a great opportunity for a business to be in front of an audience who are actively looking for products & services.
