Exciting news - W’ve been awarded one of the Party Kit Network Rising Star awards for 2026.
This recognition is for everyone who’s borrowed our party kits, shared them with friends, and helped cut down on single-use waste. Every hire makes a difference.
Together, Party Kit Network members have already avoided over 1.6 million single-use items – including 276,000 just this year!
Here’s to making celebrations more sustainable, one party at a time.

This clever Library member borrowed our tool kit so that they could fix their electric skate board by themselves. 🛠️

We encourage everyone to have a go at carrying out repairs by themselves - and if you get stuck on anything you can always come in and ask one of our amazing volunteers to help you out. 😊

Hello! We are looking for a new chocolate fountain for the library. Our current one has done us proud by servicing countless parties, but it is now time that we laid it rest 😔.

If you have one that can be donated to the library please message us or email us at [email protected] UK

Thankyou!
