January 2025: Revere the Residence’s physical store has permanently closed. You can still shop for its wonderfully unique homewares online, while it hopes to launch a new programme of art workshops and socials for young people with learning difficulties soon.
What is it?
This social enterprise on Stokey high street sells nifty homewares and one-of-a-kind artworks created by local young people with learning disabilities. Founder Kate Revere launched Revere the Residence just before lockdown, wanting to build homeware and lifestyle shop in the centre of Hackney. Inspired by her creative eldest daughter Piper who has learning disabilities and autism, she aims to sell products that have a creative focus and bespoke feel.
What does it sell?
Arty stuff, basically. There's posters, postcards, babygrows, ceramics, hats, and stickers all on sale. Everything has a personal touch, too.
Opening times:
Mon,Tues Closed; Wed-Fri 10am-5pm; Sat 10am-6pm; Sun 11am-5pm
Time Out tip:
If you're after a gift for a friend or family, you should most definitely get it from here and help out a good cause at the same time.
