In this inspiring episode, I sit down with Nora Fahy, the manager of the Roscommon Women's Network and the driving force behind CycleUp Textiles, a social enterprise that is transforming scrap fabric into one-of-a-kind bags and gifts. Nora shares the story of how CycleUp Textiles not only promotes sustainability by upcycling materials, but also serves as a stepping stone for women in the community, offering training in sewing, design, and textile skills to empower them and open doors to employment opportunities.
Learn about the powerful impact of this initiative on both the environment and the lives of women, as Nora discusses the journey of building the enterprise and the invaluable support they’ve received from the EU Just Transition Fund. This funding has played a crucial role in helping the organization expand its reach and further its mission of empowerment and economic inclusion.
Tune in for an insightful conversation about how creativity, community, and sustainability intersect in meaningful ways, and how social enterprises like CycleUp Textiles are making a difference.
