Welcome to Banbridge Toy Library!
Set up in May 2021, we aim to provide a more affordable and eco-friendly way to play.
We are a not-for-profit organisation, which means that ALL of our profits go directly back into the library - buying / replenishing stock or paying for those who aren't in a position to pay.
We are passionate about learning through play, and believe that all families deserve the right to access high quality toys and resources, regardless of circumstance.
How it works
Membership costs £15 for three months, or £25 for six months. You can borrow up to 5 toys per month. If you are struggling to afford membership, please don't let that hold you back. Just send us an email and we will sort out an arrangement that works for you!
Becoming a member:
1. Register online
2. Choose your membership - £15/three months or £25/six months
3. Email
4. Once we have received payment we will activate your account and you are ready to start borrowing!
