Borrow more,
Buy less
Welcome to Share Bristol, Library of Things
Why buy when you can borrow? At Share Bristol, we believe in making life easier, greener, and more affordable for everyone.
Our Library of Things is packed with everything from DIY tools and camping gear to kitchen kit and games. For a modest annual membership fee, you can reserve anything you want during the year online and pick it up from your chosen Bristol or South Gloucestershire site with no rental fees.

At Share Bristol our vision is that everybody shares, so we’re making it easier for everyone in Bristol to borrow the everyday Things they don’t use every day – tools, camping equipment, party kits, games, kitchen gadgets and so much more.
We’re a charity powered by volunteers, and we’d love for you to get involved. You can help in all sorts of ways: by donating items you no longer use to our Library of Things so others can borrow them, or by volunteering your time. Whether you fancy greeting people as a Librarian of Things or helping us care for our collection as a Thing Technician, every bit of help makes a real difference to our community.
