Turning Waste Things into Play things’ through art,
educational and recreational activity. Scrapstore educates
children, parents, child minders, play leaders and play
professionals about re-use and recycling.
By collecting local business's clean, reusable waste, we
save over 100 ton's of waste from landfill every year! We also buy in products for our shop, such as some of our
seasonal range and pass on the discount we get to our
customers and members.
Our shop and premises are wheelchair friendly and fully
accessible to people with disabilities.
