We’re calling on our community to help us reach the final £1,500 of our Spacehive crowdfunding campaign, run in partnership with Cheshire West and Chester Council. Thanks to incredible local support, we’ve already reached 83% of our target — but we need your help to get to 100% in the next 8 days.
Our campaign has attracted backers from across the community, unlocking match funding from Cheshire West and Chester Council’s Climate Change Emergency Fund and Community Innovation Fund. With your support, we’ll be able to deliver the Chester Green Festival on June 7th and 14th, alongside launching four new Community Refill Hubs across Cheshire. These hubs will offer reusable party kits for hire, as well as sewing, repair initiatives and training to help people reduce waste and save money.
Here’s what some of our supporters have said so far:
“If everyone did their bit we can save so much! Amazing work you guys are doing. Keep going! You ARE making a difference. This is my way of acknowledging World Earth Day, in Cheshire and the North West UK.”
“This is a fantastic project and I’m delighted to support it with a donation. I’m looking forward to attending Chester Green Festival in June!”
“This is such an important project for our community and for its future. Great job!”
At Eco Communities, we’re hearing a clear message: people across Cheshire West want practical, everyday ways to move away from a throwaway culture and towards a circular way of living — where items are repaired, reused and shared rather than binned.
Previous generations repaired and repurposed, and we believe it’s time to bring that mindset back. Some of these projects are already happening locally, while others are still ideas we’re working to make a reality — with your help.
You can support us by pledging from as little as £2 via our Spacehive crowdfunding page:
