Habitat for Humanity Ireland brings Habitat ReStore to the North West

ReStore, Habitat’s social enterprise, held their official opening event on Thursday at Lisnagelving, bringing together staff, volunteers and supporters to celebrate.

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.

The shop and donation centre will be open 9.30am - 5.00pm, Monday – Saturday at Unit 13c Lisnagelvin Shopping Centre, Derry BT47 6DF.

Building on the success of six Habitat ReStores across Ireland, ReStore Lisnagelvin will deliver real impact for local people and the wider community in Derry.

Jenny Williams, Habitat’s Chief Executive, said: “Every year, the six ReStores across Ireland are making a difference for local people, communities and the planet. It has long been part of our strategy to launch ReStore in the North West, we are delighted to open Habitat ReStore in Lisnagelvin and thankful for the welcome we have received.”placeholder image
