Oban Toy Cupboard Oban Toy Cupboard is a registered Scottish charity (SCO 19837) and operates as a toy lending library We also have a donation tin for tea/coffee.

Lorn Toy Library (known locally as the Toy Cupboard) is a community led toy lending library that also provides year-round stay and play sessions for under 5s. Grants and local fundraising for our charity means that we can provide our services at a heavily subsidised cost, ensuring that we can support the children in the community who need it most. We run out of Glencruitten Church Centre and currently have three weekly sessions. Updates and changes are posted on Facebook and the Team Reach app, which you can download and use the code TCOban for all our service updates. Tuesday stay and play 10-12
Wednesday stay and play 10-12
Friday stay and play 10-12

We ask those who can afford it to pay a suggested donation of £2.50 per child. All of our toys are available for hire, please just ask a staff member and they'll explain the process. Toy Cupboard is run by a volunteer Committee who employ three part time staff:
Rhoda Thomson - Toy Librarian
Annie Andertson - Play Leader (Committee Chairperson)
Ashley McGlone - Play Leader

To enable the Toy Cupboard to continue to function it is important that members participate in the continuing success by attending Annual General Meeting and joining/supporting the Committee.

We are taking part in making these this year and will be starting them today with the idea of having them all done by the end of the holidays.

Each adult will be given a card to help thier kids make. These will then be sent off to make into Christmas cards and everyone will get one copy free with the option to order more. A wonderful keepsake to have and send to family and friends.

If we miss you please just ask a member of staff for a template 😁
