We have partnered with the Edinburgh Tool Library at the Meadowbank Hub, 121 Lawrie Reilly Place, Edinburgh, EH7 5GS. This allows library members to book instruments online, in advance, and collect them.
We visit the Edinburgh Tool Library on the last Monday of each month (expect December). We are there 5:30 - 6:30 PM and you can collect / return your instruments between these times.
If you want to donate instruments here then please read more on our Donate/Volunteer page first.
