Share Salisbury (A Library of Things) is a community item hire service, offering a range of memberships to suit all budgets. Our ever-growing collection includes things like camping equipment, DIY tools, event shelters, kids' games and electronic items. This provides people with access to items which may have previously been unaffordable, required for single use only, or inconvenient to store at home. Since June 2021, we have offered the following services to the community: - Providing a place where people can borrow instead of buying new - Attending community events throughout the year - Monthly repair cafes offer repairs of electrical, clothing, jewellery, books, bikes and other portable items. By March 2025, the Library of Things had 1,428 members registered with online accounts and completed 1,442 loans throughout the year. Since opening in 2021, we have loaned out a total of 3771 items to the local community. The Repair Cafe attempted 360 repairs this year and successfully restored 282 items for members of the local community. This year also marked the 50th edition of the Repair Cafe. Volunteers contributed 1,284 hours over the year, bringing the total to 5,532 hours of service since opening, delivering an estimated £75,000 of value to the local community.
Directors & volunteers are all directly involved with decision-making and development of the Library of Things and the Repair Cafe. We take requests from our members in the community as to what they would like to see available to borrow in the Library of Things next. The item requested is then put on the wish list for item donations or sourced using spare funds.
Included within marketing and promotion is an amount of £1,600 paid to E McHugh, director, for digital marketing services. There were no other transactions or arrangements in connection with the remuneration of directors, or compensation for directors’ loss of office, which require disclosure.
No transfer of assets other than for full consideration
