Membership

Membership costs just £15 for the year, and we offer FREE membership to families on low or no income.

Would you like to help a local family access the Toy Library?

If you'd like to Pay It Forward, simply donate £15 here. Your kindness will help ensure that no family misses out because of financial hardship.

Once you are a member you can:

Join our play sessions and events at both our Walthamstow and our Leytonstone sites (session/event fees apply).

Use our free book library service – we have set up a free mini library for you to take and leave a range of children’s books. You can keep them, pass them on to someone else or bring them back – it’s up to you!

Take from our Community Cupboard, refresh your wardrobe every season and save money and the planet at the same time. There’s also lots of equipment up for grabs!

Hire the Toy Library for a birthday party or other event.

Have a say in how the organisation is run through the AGM and the option to apply to be a Toy Library Trustee.

Borrow a range of high quality, educational toys and equipment from as little as £1 for two weeks.

“It’s such a great accessible indoor and outdoor space for families to use and interact with others, no matter your circumstances. My little boy loves it every time he visits.”
