Have a Space to Share?

Do you have a commercial space in East Hertfordshire that’s sitting empty — even just for a few months?


The Fabric Folk is looking for a temporary home to run pop-up repair workshops and test our community model.

We’re a growing social initiative focused on sustainability, repair, and circular living. A short-term let or underused space could help us bring real impact to the neighbourhood — and turn unused square metres into community value.

If you have a shopfront, studio, or flexible space to offer, we’d love to hear from you.
