New video interview now live with another incredible social enterprise in Edinburgh called The Edinburgh Tool Library.
A tool library is first a simple idea – it works like a normal library but with tools instead of books.
Borrow things like drills, sanders, and steamers by the week. Join in events like DIY classes, workshops, and community builds. Meet your neighbours and people from your community, share your knowledge and skills, or learn something new. Volunteer! Help run the tool library, assist with events, and build stronger links within your community.
For Edinburgh Tool Library, a tool library is about building a community as well as building things. They run an employability programme, a series of volunteer builds, and a residency programme for young makers and they believe in access over excess. By borrowing tools, sharing skills and learning to live more responsibly, welook to support ourselves, our neighbours and our planet.
