ReStory by ReLove is open!

ReLove has celebrated the official opening of ReStory by ReLove, a social enterprise giving beautifully curated, preloved furniture a second life.

ReStory by ReLove is open!

The launch ReStory by ReLove took place last week at ReStory’s very first pop-up store at The Kirk in Surry Hills, a stunning heritage-listed former church generously donated through Toga Group and restored by Erilyan. Over 100 guests gathered for an evening of live music, speeches and community connection, marking a new chapter for ReLove in its mission to furnish safe homes for people in crisis. It’s all about giving preloved furniture a second life.

Among the guests was renowned interiors expert Neale Whitaker, recently announced as ReLove’s brand ambassador. Whitaker shared: “I’m looking forward to working with ReLove and lending my support to this important Sydney-based community that creates a circular economy for the design, furniture and homewares industries through its support for families and individuals impacted by domestic violence and homelessness.”

Every $500 spent at ReStory helps furnish a complete home for someone who needs it most. All purchases are 100 per cent donations to ReLove, supporting its essential work to restore dignity, safety and comfort for people experiencing crisis.

Set inside The Kirk, the pop-up offers visitors a carefully curated collection of high-quality preloved furniture and homewares, all with a positive social and environmental impact. As ReLove describes it: where design gets a second life – and people do too.

The ReStory pop-up at The Kirk is open for a limited time. Visitors can explore the collection in person at The Kirk, 422 Cleveland Street, Surry Hills, NSW.
