About
Edinburgh Tool Library is the UK's first tool library, promoting sharing as a way of reducing our environmental impact and building a more resilient and collaborative community. We lend out tools for DIY, gardening, decorating and machine repair, so you don’t need to own them. From our early days in the police box on Leith Walk, we now have two workshop spaces in Leith and Portobello, and two other tool library spaces for tool repair, cataloguing and distribution. We also run inclusive workshops to help people learn the skills needed for their own projects and repairs, give employment support to young trainees who are currently facing barriers to employment and together with our volunteers make amazing things happen in the community.
