Join us for an inspiring episode of Moments to Movements, where host Luke Cook uncovers the extraordinary stories of individuals turning pivotal life moments into powerful movements for change.
This engaging series celebrates the resilience, creativity, and determination that drive impactful initiatives—offering insights and inspiration for anyone looking to make a difference.
In this episode, we meet Ren Fernando, the visionary Co-Founder of ReLove, a charity born from the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. Ren, an architect and artist with a passion for sustainability, joined forces with Ben Stammer to create a movement that transforms lives. ReLove supports women and children leaving crisis refuges by providing them with high-quality furniture that would otherwise go to waste, merging environmental consciousness with social impact.
Ren’s accolades include being a Snow Entrepreneur, a 2022 and 2023 AMP Tomorrow Maker, a finalist for the Marie Claire Woman of the Year Eco Warrior, the NSW Local Woman of the Year (Maroubra), and a 2021 Westfield Local Hero. Her story is one of purpose, innovation, and a profound commitment to creating a better world.
