About Yodomo
Yodomo is a social venture on a mission to increase wellbeing and promote the understanding of reuse of materials by facilitating wider participation in making and crafts. We believe that making is good for you and good for the planet.
The word 'Yodomo' is a portmanteau of the words 'You Do More'. We encourage participation in crafts and making by bringing the expertise of independent artists and makers directly to you. Our makers teach either online, through kits or at live events.
Our work falls into four key areas: Making and Reuse of Materials, Making and Wellbeing, Making in the Community and our professional programme - The Making a Living Programme™
About the Hackney Creative Reuse Project
The Hackney Creative Reuse Project connects Hackney businesses, makers and communities, finding innovative solutions to creatively reuse pre-consumer waste and surplus materials. Premised on the logic of the circular economy, we seek to provide practical solutions to reusing waste while benefiting the creative community and local businesses of Hackney.
