Yodomo circular hubs
The maker community can source materials for creative projects sustainably by collecting from Yodomo's growing network of circular hubs.
We know that the maker community wants to reuse materials where possible. Sign up as a Creative Reuse Member before collecting materials.
Yodomo Circular Hub at Hackney City Farm
Our first hub launched in 2022 with support from London Borough of Hackney as part of the Hackney Creative Reuse Project.
The hub 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, it now works to provide practical solutions to reusing waste while benefiting the creative community and local businesses of Hackney.

Hackney Wick Fish Island Circular Hub - coming soon!
The Hackney Wick Fish Island (HWFI) Circular Hub & Sustainable Young Makers programme is a new home for circular approaches to design and making in the heart of The Trampery’s new Fish Island Village.
The Hub will support young fashion and making entrepreneurs, other makers and enterprises and the wider community looking to work in more circular ways. It will be a place to explore the reuse of materials, demonstrating the impact of circular approaches in reducing textile waste. The Circular Hub and Sustainable Young Makers programme will be run by a new partnership between Hackney Wick and Fish Island Community Development Trust, Yodomo Ltd and Hackney CVS, supported with space generously offered by The Trampery and Peabody.
The HWFI Circular Hub & Sustainable Young Makers programme will:
- Establish a circular textiles hub focused on creative reuse of materials in making;
- That supports young fashion and making entrepreneurs to develop their businesses using circular approaches; and
- Engages a wider community in materials reuse and circular making; to
- Demonstrate the potential for circular economy approaches to making and fashion, encouraging reuse and addressing issues around textile waste
This hub will inter-connect with our work at the Yodomo Circular Hub at Hackney City Farm.
Where next?
Yodomo Circular Hubs work through close collaboration between local authorities, local businesses, professional makers, community groups, budding makers and more. Contact us if you think a hub could work well in your area.
