ReStage's map of creative/circular hubs goes live

The aim was to create a map of all the hubs to make the work of the hubs visible to the wider creative sector. The map and a library of case studies from the hubs is now live on the ReStage website. This work builds on the 2024 Arts Council England report on circular economy networks report by SOENECS. The survey and workshop identified that over half of the hubs surveyed have less than three years on their lease and that finding and keeping appropriate spaces to operate is critical. We hope this will be the beginning of a collective call for action and investment.
