Hello Wandsworth!👋
Why buy when you can borrow?
Can you believe a drill is only used for 3 minutes a year? Instead of cluttering up your cupboards with stuff you don’t need - let's share useful things with each other instead.
From carpet cleaners, to drills, or projectors - Wandsworth Library of Things is a place where you can borrow useful household items you don’t need to use often. You can find us inside Southside Shopping Centre.
Join a growing community of people sharing items and skills to save money, repair broken items and cut down on wasteful one-time purchases.
