Sheffield Leisure Library

The Sheffield Leisure Library is a registered charity that loans leisure and multi-sensory items to people with learning difficulties, their families and carers for them to enjoy and learn through activities. The Leisure Library provides the opportunity for adults, children and young people to choose things for themselves and to develop self confidence.

Some of the equipment available to borrow is expensive to buy outright and it is always possible that it would not be suitable or simply not liked by the person using it. At the Leisure Library you can borrow items for very little cost over a short period of time, which gives people the chance to try out a wide variety of games or equipment to find out what they really like.   

There is a large range of items that can be borrowed which include:
•    Jigsaw Puzzles
•    Table-Top games
•    Light and sound equipment
•    Keyboards and musical instruments
•    Sensory equipment
•    Equipment designed to encourage co-ordination skills

For a full list of items please ask to see our catalogue. In the near future full details of the Leisure Library including the catalogue will be available to view online at www.burtonstreet.co.uk.

The Leisure Library has moved to Burton Street this year and we are very keen to make sure that as many people and groups use the Leisure Library as possible.

At present the Leisure Library is open on Monday mornings from 10 till 12. If it is not possible to come in at this time, then you can contact Karen Egeh or Justin Sheppy at Burton Street on 0114 2332908 and we will try to arrange a more suitable appointment.

Membership:

If you want to borrow items from the leisure library, there is a small annual joining cost. Items can then be hired from as little as 50p per month.
