#THERUFFANDRUBYROOMZ
The Ruff & Ruby Rooms is our award-winning community hub & social enterprise, located in the heart of Stoke-on-Trent at The Potteries Centre (next to Scotts / opposite Lush). The upper floor of the venue is also available for community use & creative engagement/activities.
The Ruff & Ruby Rooms is a dynamic community space which provides a place of belonging, opportunity & purpose through its retail facet, as well as creative programmes & engagements. We are open to the public currently 4 days a week for shopping, socialising, donating & relaxing. Opening times/days can be found on our Facebook page & are updated each week.
Creative media pieces are played in-store & our walls are decorated with artwork featuring positive & inspirational messages. We also create innovative themed window displays & slogan t-shirt campaigns, which add value to the charity’s work.
The Ruff & Rubyrooms delivers an engaging DESIGN YOUR FUTURE [feat. WORK IT] programme, which develops real-life employability & work-readiness skills for young people aged 16-24. We also have an innovative volunteer scheme for anyone aged 13 & above. Ruff & Ruby’s volunteers range from 13 to 65!
