☕ Cup of Equali-Tea, Anyone? 🌈

At Re-Create, everyone is welcome. We proudly stand with the LGBTQIA+ community not just during Pride Month, but throughout the entire year, celebrating the diversity, creativity, and strength that make our communities richer.

Pride is a reminder that visibility, acceptance, and equality cannot be taken for granted. At a time when many LGBTQIA+ people continue to face discrimination and challenges to their rights - support, solidarity, and community are more important than ever.

We are committed to ensuring that Re-Create remains a safe, welcoming, and supportive space for all.

As we put the finishing touches on our newly decorated warehouse, we'd love to add some crafts that represent Pride to the space. If you have any flags, banners, or decorations from Pride Cymru that you no longer need, please consider donating them so they can continue to bring visibility, joy, and a sense of belonging to our community.

To donate, please get in touch with Scrapstore Manager Caitlin at [email protected]

A reminder that we reopen on Saturday 4th July, and we're looking forward to welcoming everyone back through our doors. We hope to see you then! ✌️❤️🧡💛💚💙🩵💜

Please Welcome Andrea to the team at Recreate Cardiff!

“Hi, I'm Andrea the new Resource Officer here at Recreate.

The one who organises collections, deliveries, getting stock in and out for ya!

I have always been a creative, experimenting in many different mediums - I just enjoy play and creating whether it's 'good' or not it's so good for the soul. My favourite thing to paint is eyes and favourite thing to sculpt with is willow. In my spare time I love exploring with my beautiful dog Ember who means the world to me. I also perform in cabaret shows and am proudly q***r.

Dw i'n dysgu Cymraeg!

I think community and play is so so important for kids and adults and I'm really excited to be a part of Recreate and what we have planned for the future. Come and say hey!”

We’re so excited for Andrea to use her skills and experience to grow our collection of the weird and wonderful stock at Recreate!

At Re-Create we LOVE saving items from landfill!

Caitlin & Andrea spotted some golden items in the neighbours bins and jumped in to save them!
