Pimlico Toy Library

Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday 10.00-12.00 & 1.00-3.00 Pimlico Toy Library - play sessions

Pimlico Toy Library is a fantastic place to go, but also a great local charity helping families out who struggle with many different issues. They have been going for over 25 years but now face possible closure in March 2012 due to local government funding cuts.

So it’s vital that they get more members (annual membership is just £12) to avoid closure.

Easily accessed by the 360 and 24 bus, and a short walk from Pimlico Tube, the Pimlico

They only have 50 more days on the Crowdfund website so its really important that we let you/ your relatives/ your bosses/ your shop keeper and anyone else you can think of, know that if they would like to donate money to the Pimlico Toy Library they need to do it now Please. www.cowdfundsw1.com
