A collaborative community venture organised and operated by Cranleigh Climate Action and Cranleigh Library (part of Surrey library service) with the support of Elmbridge Retirement villages (who are providing storage).

Fed up with the clutter of things you hardly ever use? Our Library of Things aims to provide access to a wide range of items, tools and resources to make your life easier.

As our catalogue develops, you will find gardening equipment, DIY tools and kitchen equipment, with more items added regularly.

Don’t buy, borrow!
Our Library of Things is Free!

… though of course donations are welcome, both of money and of suitable items.

All our items are carefully sourced; some generously donated by local partner firms, organisations or local people. Get in touch if you have something to donate.

By joining the Library of Things you can help Cranleigh become a more sustainable village and foster a true sense of shared community.
