This is a great new space for creatives in Havant. It’s run as a charity and they have lots of fabulous ideas, including repurposing old stuff creatively and encouraging heritage crafts.

We love this!

Wondering what to do with your over the shoulder boulder holders (BRA!) when you have finished with them?

Note they need to be useable for those unable to afford to buy bras.

Drop them down to The Studio 68 West Street, Havant for recycling.

Funds will go to The Studio for community activities!

Oh yes!

🌍✨ It’s the start of – a campaign by Oxfam that encourages us to donate, reuse, re-wear, and restyle our clothes instead of buying new.

But it’s not just about fashion! From furniture to toys, choosing second-hand is a smart and sustainable way to reduce waste and give pre-loved items a new life. 💚

Why not take the challenge this September and make second-hand your first choice?
