Equipment and Craft Supplies
Scrap Stores
There is an increasing number of Scrap Stores and Resource Centres throughout the UK. They are a great place to go for all sorts of materials for all kinds of craft activities. Some also hire out a great range of equipment, from badge making machines to play parachutes, so well worth a visit. There is usually a membership fee, the cost of which will depend on whether you are an individual or belong to a group or from a school.
The scrap stores are organised below into regions of England, Wales and Scotland. If you know of a scrap store that's not listed here, or if you find contact details to be out of date then do please let us know.
