Reuse and Repair Champion: Jeffrey Roe

Hats off to TOG Hackerspace’s Jeffrey Roe, our Reuse and Repair Champion! Taking his trophy at the launch of Circular.ie at Lansdowne Road, Dublin-based Jeffrey secured a prize of €2,000 for his win in the Full Circle Awards. 

“Jeffrey has been the driving force behind Repair Cafés in Ireland and is a well-recognised champion and leader in the field,” said our judges. “His community-driven, hands-on approach empowers people with valuable repair skills and fosters collaborative, social spaces for learning. Jeffrey stands out for his technical innovation and leadership in embedding repair culture within communities.”

The Full Circle Awards is a new initiative designed by Circular.ie to honour and celebrate the incredible efforts of everyday people who are driving positive change through circular living.

We invited people across the country to nominate their circular heroes: ordinary individuals making an extraordinary impact by promoting reuse, repair, recycling, and sustainable living in their communities. 

With €2,000 available for winners of our six categories, along with personalised expert mentoring to help amplify their circular initiatives, the Full Circle Awards highlight the creativity, commitment, and drive among circular heroes across Ireland.
