Circular Communities Scotland is delighted to launch the brand logo for The Share and Repair Network.

We announced we were looking forward to setting up and overseeing this nation-wide network, supported by Scottish Government and Zero Waste Scotland, late last year, in partnership with Edinburgh Tool Library and Edinburgh Remakery.

The Share and Repair Network aims to significantly increase sharing and repair facilities across the country, in order to reduce consumption and offer Scottish communities sustainable and affordable alternatives to buying new. This aligns directly with our vision to see a thriving circular economy in Scotland, with communities benefiting from the social, environmental and economic impacts.

The network is made up of two core groups, sharing libraries and repair projects, who are united in their cause to bring reuse to the heart of how we consume and use goods. The new logo represents both project types working side by side as part of the network, to provide these services to communities across Scotland.

We are also proud to present two individual icons representing repair and sharing respectively, reflecting their component parts in the main logo:

 

This brand will be reflected in the upcoming Share and Repair Network website, launching later this year, alongside Share and Repair Network communications and other exciting developments. Take a look at our new Share and Repair Network Report, to get an idea of the kind of work we will be undertaking to support these vital reuse organisations across the country.
