    Share Bristol Library of Things Concession Membership: For those households on a low income or who are not in work. Select this membership and let us welcome you with open arms. Doesn't specify if you have £16K or more in savings, though you can get in touch if you need to discuss this on hello@sharebristol.igocode.com. Content copied from the website:

    At Share Bristol our vision is that everybody shares, so we’re making it easier for everyone in Bristol to borrow everyday things they don’t need every day – tools, camping equipment, party kits, games, kitchen gadgets and so much more.

    We’re a charity, and most of us are volunteers, and we have community and people at the heart of everything we do. That’s why we charge an annual membership to be part of our sharing community, rather than a fee per borrow, and why you will speak to a person and not a locker whenever you pick something up or drop it off.

    The Library of Things movement is growing across the globe, helping people save money and space in their homes and helping the environment by making good use of our resources. However, each Library of Things organisation is different – some are commercial businesses, some are informal volunteer groups, some are community interest companies and some, like Share Bristol, are registered charities. Share Bristol is an independent charity and is not part of a wider group or affiliated with any other Library of Things organisation.
