A fantastic organisation addressing a very real issue — these days provide an opportunity to create a tangible product that will be actively used by the people the charity supports. It is a great way for teams of volunteers to do something meaningful in a short space of time, with a brilliant group of representatives from Habitat for Humanity.

Join Our Global Village
Global Village is our overseas volunteering programme, offering partners the chance to volunteer for 8-10 days in teams of 15-50 employees. You’ll spend five days building a home on site alongside the local community, bookended by welcome and farewell ceremonies – an unforgettable shared experience.
Interested in your company joining our Global Village programme? Get in touch – we’d love to discuss the details!
Take a turn in our Upcycling Workshop
Only 2% of UK social housing comes furnished, leaving residents already facing hardship struggling to afford essentials like a bed, fridge or wardrobe. Our Upcycling Workshops rescue furniture destined for landfill, transforming it into high-quality items for our properties and community members in need.
At our Romford ReStore, you’ll work in small groups sanding, painting and varnishing items – tailored to your skill level, in full (6-hour) or half (3-hour) days. No experience required!
Turn a House into a Home
Our House to Home programme supports people experiencing housing need in Havering who may not be able to afford the practical help they need themselves.
Each household can choose the rooms they want to transform, select colours and be supported to design their space around the things that matter to them. Our volunteers provide practical decorating support, helping to paint and transform rooms and make the changes happen.
Help us light up the future!
Household textiles account for almost half (42%) of the 900,000 tonnes of textile waste sent to UK landfill every year. Join our Lampshade Making Workshops to help change that!
In this hands-on creative session, you’ll craft a bespoke lampshade from deadstock fabrics, learning sustainable design techniques while diverting materials from landfill. Sessions run for 2 hours at our Romford ReStore or your office.
Support our Christmas Pop-up Shop!
Each December, our Christmas Pop-Up Shop at ReStore sells highly-discounted donated toys, gifts and decorations to local community members in Havering who need it most – making Christmas affordable while reducing waste.
Your volunteer team will work alongside our staff sorting, cleaning, testing and pricing toys, setting up displays and more – helping everyone celebrate Christmas with joy and hope!
