We're delighted to share that we will be opening Habitat ReStore in Lisnagelvin Shopping Centre soon.
Habitat ReStore, the low-cost DIY store that builds sustainable community, directly tackles poverty here in Ireland. By selling donated new and used building supplies and home improvement materials ReStore enables local people to improve their homes at low cost. ReStore provides skills and employability training for people of all ages and backgrounds and diverts tons of reusable waste from landfill.
Habitat Ireland’s Chief Executive Jenny Williams said, “Plans to launch Habitat ReStore in Derry are moving ahead well. Every year, the six ReStores across Ireland are making a difference for local people, communities and the planet.”
"We will need lots of support from local people, companies, churches and the wider community to make it possible and we are looking forward to building the partnerships which have made ReStore successful across the network.’
