It’s always a pleasure! Thank you

‼️Due to the clients wall being an internal partition wall and therefore not suitable for getting a secure fixing, this seat is now available again‼️ So if you or someone you know could benefit from it, please get in touch.

👇🏼A recent job done by our Small Repairs Officer Stuart - such a simple solution to keep our clients vacuum, mop and brush & pan within easy reach but out of sight! 🌟 Especially when it’s frequently used items, easy access to them makes such a difference. Think you’ll agree it also looks great!

⭐Donations Request No.2⭐

If you saw our post yesterday regarding donations of tools, you will know the ethos behind this Community Tools Library is to help reduce waste and save money by sharing tools and equipment which households either cannot afford or only use 1 or twice so does not make sense for everyone to purchase from new. And it's not just tools as you'll see below👇

If you have any of the tools/equipment you think we might need, please email [email protected] with:

💠Details of item(s)
💠Photo of item(s)
💠Confirmation it is in good working order and complete

THANK YOU for thinking of us and choosing to reuse your items rather than throw them away!❤️

Please don't put offers of donations in the comments on these posts as we don't always see them and it becomes very difficult to manage, thank you.

✨Angus Community Tools Library - We are pleased to announce we are now full Members of Circular Communities Scotland! ♻️

🛠️We are putting together the inventory for our new Community Tools Library, which will be up and running soon.

We are reaching out to the community for any donations of tools/equipment - see poster below for an example of the things we are looking for👇

The Community Tools Library is built on the idea of helping both the environment and our wallets, so buying everything new would go against what it stands for. We know many unused or unwanted tools and pieces of equipment could be donated and shared by the wider community, and we will only purchase those we don't receive by way of donation.

🌍This helps reduce our throwaway culture and enables people to carry out home maintenance/DIY at a fraction of the cost by sharing items they may only need once or twice a year 🙏

We want to accept donations that will be of definite use to our charity and our community – so if we say no to your kind offer please don’t think we are ungrateful; we are just trying to ensure that any donations can help us achieve our goals.

If you have tools/equipment you think we might need, please email [email protected] with

💠Details of the item(s) (make & model)
💠Photo of the item(s) and anything extra it comes with
💠Confirmation it is in good working order and complete

Please don't put offers of donations in the comments on these posts as we don't see them all and its very difficult to manage

THANK YOU for thinking of us and choosing to reuse your tools rather than throw them away! ❤️

Lastly, although well intended, PLEASE don't turn up at our offices to leave donations without prior agreement. We will not accept them.
