About
Buy Nowt LS6 Library of 'Things' is an innovative community venture that invites you to borrow items instead of purchasing them.
About
Hello and welcome! We are the Buy Nowt LS6 Library of 'Things', a pay-as-you-feel community initiative, created by a group of local volunteers in order to encourage local people to borrow instead of buying the things they need.
Win, win!
At Buy Nowt LS6 we believe we can all make an environmental difference by borrowing instead of buying. Buy nowt! Reduce waste creation, share resources, meet people in your local community and borrow stuff with a pay-as-you-feel donation.
