A community Furniture Recycling Project is now operating from the Rediscovery Centre as part of the Ballymun Regeneration Programme.  The initiative was set-up to encourage the repair and reuse of broken or damaged household furniture items in the community.  

A workshop has been established and householders with damaged/broken furniture  can pass on items for repair instead of discarding or throwing the items away.   Repaired items are sold at the local farmers market which operates in Ballymun once a month.  The income from sales of repaired items contributes to supporting the project and staff.

Residents with suitable items for repair can contact the workshop and make arrangements for items to be collected.   The service primarily serves the Ballymun and Environs although all items and locations will be considered.

If you have an item which you think is suitable for repair, contact the workshop manager Mr. Liam McCotter on 01-8422078 or email info@rediscoverycentre.ie.
