We are episode number 39 with Geraldine Carton and Taz Kelleher of The Useless Project
The Useless Project was started by Geraldine Carton and Taz Kelleher in November 2018. Powered by energy, enthusiasm and positivity, the aim of this collective has always been to bring like-minded individuals together and highlight the positive, accessible and pragmatic side to living a more sustainable lifestyle.
Starting-off largely events-based, The Useless Project has expanded beyond the realms of swap shops and flea markets (although these continue!), merging into education, advocacy, awareness-raising and online content generation, amongst other activities.
On this site you will find a wide range of resources, ranging from DIY upcycling videos and sewing tutorials, to batch-cooking recipes, climate justice deep-dives and listicles of our favourite sustainable brands in Ireland and beyond. This is a space to learn, to connect, and to engage with new and interesting ideas. We’re not calling for a small amount of people to be perfectly zero-waste or “100% sustainable”. What we want to see is a huge amount of people making incremental positive changes in whatever way they can.

Dan McCaffrey
Founder of No Limits Fitness & Strength Belfast
Dan started No limits fitness from my mum & dads’ garage when he came back from university in Preston.
It was definitely not a glamorous facility but it helped get him started.
He kitted the garage out with a power cage and 200kg of weights along with a few barbells and a set of gymnastic rings.
That is all he needed to get results. Dan is a huge fan of simplicity in training and in lifestyle and this fitted seamlessly into his beliefs.
Dan started out training himself and then got a few enquiries from family members who needed help to get into training. He then grew to expand his business to 1000’s of clients inside the gym and online.
Listen to his story!
