New Collaboration Partnership with Habitat for Humanity ReStore

Recently, staff from Tuath’s Customer Engagement, Sustainability, Housing and Sustainment management team visited the Habitat ReStore in Glasnevin, where we met with Niall McConkey, Retore Impact Manager to discuss how Tuath and ReStore could work together.

This new collaboration with Habitat for Humanity Ireland and their social enterprise ReStore, is a partnership that has real potential to benefit our residents, strengthen our sustainability efforts and reduce waste.

What ReStore Offers

ReStore accepts a wide range of surplus building materials, fixtures, appliances, flooring, lighting and furniture from both home and office settings. This includes items such as timber, tiles, tools, kitchen units, white‑goods, carpets, lighting, paint and good‑quality furniture. These materials are then made available at affordable prices to individuals and community groups, helping to reduce waste and support those who need it most. By giving these items a second life, fewer materials end up in landfill, supporting both our sustainability goals and the wider community.

Why This Partnership Matters

A collaboration with ReStore aligns strongly with Tuath’s sustainability, sustainment and customer engagement goals and offers practical support for residents who may be setting up or maintaining their homes.

There are currently Habitat ReStores open in Glasnevin, Drogheda, Belfast, Lisburn, Ballymena, Newry, Newtownards and Lisnagelvin, with plans to open a new store in Athlone later this year.
