Our ManifestoFabrica specialises in Upcycling, Collectables, Quirky, Vinyl, Vintage & Retro.
We’re a local social-enterprise business supporting several charities helping survivors of environmental disasters– notably Chernobyl. We are committed to three causes:
General sustainability, Rebuilding shattered communities and
Helping local residents live stylishly and frugally in difficult times.
We source prior-owned furniture and household goods from house-clearances, recycling plants, corporate surpluses,end-of-line sales, unsold auction stock and donations. We restore, test and improve items for sale. Fabrica also
undertakes commissions, puts on local events and runs a record label. All pro�ts after costs and overheads are givento our nominated charities and local good causes, primarily Chernobyl Children’s Life Line (reg Charity 1014274)
We welcome collaborations with: restorers; artisans; joiners; painters; craftsmen; creatives; photographers;upholsterers; crafties; van drivers; tea-makers; cake-makers, etc. Our services include: DJ equipment hire;
commissions; painting techniques workshops…

carried out in our on-site workshop. We deliver free in the immediate area and further a�eld at-cost.
