We're delighted to be celebrating one year of RenCAN Hub with a network gathering to showcase the great work going on in Renfrewshire and provide further opportunity to build relationships and learn from one another.
What you can expect... a day of interactive workshops, themed panels, offers & needs, good food and lots of networking.
Our jam packed, fun filled schedule is as follows:

10.15am - 10.45am: Fixed in Renfrewshire: Building a Culture of ReMaking. Community initiatives that promote repairing, sharing and remaking help to create a thrifty culture that builds on Renfrewshire's heritage of manufacturing while treading lightly on our planet's precious resources. We will hear about the great work that is already happening and what more can be done, from Mary O'Brien (Gryffe Repair Cafe), Kelly Espindola (ReMode) and Gemma Elliott (Renfrewshire Council), in conversation with RenCAN Hub's Svenja Meyerricks.
