ReMade was established in late 2020 during the pandemic by mother of two Alice Coren after she saw the inequality that women suffered.
Factors including domestic abuse levels rising and women being more likely to be unemployed,spurred her on to create the non-profit organisation which also provides a place for women to discuss personal issues in a safe environment.

Alice says it is a most fitting place to operate from as both organisations aim to prevent waste of some kind.
Furthermore she says the sense of community at the venue would have a positive impact on visitors.
While Fur Clemt works to prevent food going to landfill and reduce the products the public wastes on a daily basis, ReMade aims to revamp old furniture that can be re-used, with items being available to buy in the shop or online.
