About This Event
Come and join us for some fun 'make your own' activities, using materials from our Scrapstore and our famous Smoothie Bike! Learn how to repurpose materials and create something useful and beautiful for your gardens or other outdoor spaces.
The activities are suitable for children, but all children must be supervised by adults. Adults are also welcome to take part in the activities, even if they aren't supervised by children!
Charnwood Eco Hub is a not-for-profit, shared community hub based in Loughborough. Our aim is to provide a space to meet, make, fix, create and share sustainable ideas and resources.
Finding us – To gain access to the Eco Hub on a Thursday or Saturday, please enter through SOFA, this is the shop we share a premises with. Their entrance is on the corner of Clarence Street and Nottingham Road. Then, follow the signs for the Eco Hub that are on the floor throughout the shop, they will lead you to the stairs.
If your event is on a Wednesday evening, please use the access door on Clarence Street. The door is almost directly opposite Travis Perkins, and will be marked by our sign. The door will be closed but there is a bell system in place, simply ring the bell and one of our volunteers will be there to let you in promptly.
