Climate Café Crieff started at Remake in January 2023 at our Reuse Hub. Our Climate Cafés are now held at Remake Food for Good, which is located at 2-4 East High Street, Crieff, PH7 3AF.
We also hold a weekly Climate Café for pupils at Crieff High School which takes place every Tuesday lunchtime.
The idea for Climate Cafés originated over in Dunkeld to provide a space for the community to meet, talk, ask questions and share ideas about climate action. Climate Cafés are a safe, welcoming, informal space to talk about climate. The sessions are free to attend, with tea, coffee and biscuits available throughout the evening.
Each month, we have a different guest speaker to share their work and experiences with us. You can find out more about our upcoming sessions on the What's On page.
At Remake we are passionate about helping our community to increase their environmental knowledge and practical reuse and repair skills to help tackle the Climate Emergency. We work with many community groups, schools and organisations each year to provide fun and interactive sessions to explore a wide range of climate topics and to embed creative skills that will last a lifetime.
If your group would be interested in learning more about how you can work with us, then please complete an online enquiry and we'll get back to you soon.
We have made the decision to step back from the delivery of our bike project after 4 years. Since 2021, this project diverted more than 3000 bikes from landfill from 4 recycling centres across Perth & Kinross.
We are delighted to say that the project has now been taken over by our community partners and newly formed charity; Cycle Crieff.
Lawrence and his volunteer team at Cycle Crieff have supported us with repairs and servicing of all of our bikes and have worked closely with us at our monthly bike sales.
Cycle Crieff have the passion, skills and drive to take the project forward to deliver greater community impact and help to increase active travel within Streathearn, so it felt right for us to pass this project across to them to lead directly.
We are now no longer accepting bikes at the Reuse Hub, so if you have a bike to donate then please contact Lawrence and his team. Bike sales will continue to be held on the grass bank opposite Remake, keep and eye out for the details on when these will be taking place.
Our huge thanks go to our partners, Cycle Crieff, Bikes for Africa and Perth & Kinross Council for helping us to make the bike project a community success that will hopefully continue to benefit people for many years to come!
