We are excited to launch our brand-new Sustainable Gifting page on the NIRN website, a dedicated public platform designed to showcase the incredible gifts, services and experiences offered by our members across Northern Ireland.
This festive season, we are Re-Presenting Christmas with restored treasures, community fixes and gifts with genuine character. Under the banner “Give Pre-Loved a Presence Across Northern Ireland,” we want to show shoppers that choosing reuse and repair brings meaningful, budget-friendly joy into our homes while directly supporting local social enterprises, charity shops and grassroots community workshops.
Why Take Part?
By featuring your organisation on the Sustainable Gifting page, you will reach conscious consumers. It will help you:
Reach a Wider Audience: Put your shop, workshop or project in front of members of the public looking to spend thoughtfully and support circular initiatives.
Champion Circular Choices: Highlight the value, craft and stories behind pre-loved and repaired goods.
Promote Diverse Offerings: Feature physical items (upcycled homeware, vintage finds, refurbished tech, salvaged timber crafts) or experiential gifts (workshop tickets, tool library memberships, repair vouchers).
Growing Beyond the Festive Season
While our initial campaign focuses on Christmas gifting, this page is designed as a lasting resource. We will continually update and refresh the page throughout the year to align with seasonal moments, special holidays and circular living campaigns ensuring your organisation maintains consistent visibility with the public year-round.
How to Get Involved
We want to make sure your organisation is front and centre. If you would like your products, services, or vouchers featured on the new page, please get in touch with your Community Network Manager today to share your details, high-quality photos and links.
