I started the Re-Creations Project in 2011 with a group of volunteers, hoping to help people with learning disabilities do creative work with a positive impact on the environment. We recieved a Level 1 Millennium Award from Un Ltd, which helped us get started with tools and materials for the group. Since that time we’ve delivered over 200 workshops and parties for people of all ages, from tiny tots to senior citizens groups. We aim to make our work accessible for people of varying abilities, including people with learning disabilities, sensory impairments, dyspraxia, and physical disabilities.
In addition to our privately booked parties and workshops, you can also find us at Rainbow Festivals events throughout the year.
Many of the products that we create in our workshop are available in our Etsy shop (and can be ordered via facebook). Likewise, if you see an item in our shop and want to learn how to make it– get in touch and we can arrange a group workshop or one-to-one session for you.
Re-Creations Project 
What a wonderful idea. I love dismantling my possessions and making new ones, but I never imagined it as the means to such an awesome end. Good luck!
Thanks! The best bit is that we’re having so much fun along the way!
I love your concept – its great how you are engaging with the community and spreading awareness… This is exactly what I am aiming to do in my project, but ofcourse, in our part of the world! Great work and wish you the best of luck!!
Thanks so much, and best of luck to you too!
What a fantastic idea 🙂
Your cause is absolutely beautiful. I hope that this project continues to grow towards awareness and success!
Much love,
Evie

Hi! My name is Sue, and I’m from SlimKicker, a diet/fitness app and online website. I came across your blog a few days ago and it captured my interest!
I’m contacting you b/c we’re about to release a fitness tracker (similar to FitBit) early next year, and are looking for bloggers who would be interested in receiving 1 for free to review when it is out (negative or positive).
Would you be interested in doing this? You can email me at: sue (at) slimkicker (com) with ‘Review’ in the email heading if you are.
A brief explanation of who we are, our online website SlimKicker basically turns your diet/fitness goals into a fun level-up game. The tracker will work with the website, and allow people to track calories burned and number of steps they walk automatically. The more they exercise, the more points they rack up! That’s basically how it will work.
Anyway, hope to hear back either way…
– Sue
