🧸 How Borrowing Works

Borrowing toys is easy-peasy:

  • Borrow up to 2 toys at a time
  • Enjoy them for 14 days
  • Extend your loan at no cost (as long as no one else is waiting)
  • Maximum of 3 consecutive loan periods (6 weeks) to keep things fair
  • Some high‑value toys may require a small refundable deposit
  • Need help with a large toy? We can arrange home delivery on request!

Toy pickups and returns take place during our morning and afternoon play sessions.


🌟 Our Toys

Carrie’s Toy Library is named in memory of our much‑loved Trustee and Treasurer Carrie O’Donnell, who dedicated nearly 40 years to the charity. We honour her kindness and commitment by offering families a warm, supportive, and playful space every week.

Our magical collection includes:

  • Specialist toys to support children’s developmental skills
  • Toys that encourage social interaction
  • Sensory favourites like bubble lamps and light projectors
  • Puzzles, fidgets, and calming resources
  • And so much more!

We’re adding new toys all the time as our service grows. ✨


Cleaning & Safety

All toys are thoroughly cleaned following current hygiene guidelines.
Your child’s safety and wellbeing always come first.
