Gloucestershire Resource Centre

You need membership.. but worth it if you buy in bulk and often

Fill a shopping trolley of possibilities. A whole school play set made from one trolley and the collective effort of school staff.

My first visit for work and the ladies here were very helpful. Lots of fantastic resources that can be used in various crafts

Aladin's cave of craft items. Only my imagination is holding me back. Friendly staff and volunteers were very helpful.

Amazing selection, mainly office, crafting and DIY goods at reasonable prices with satisfaction of knowing using things that most would otherwise go to landfill. Very friendly but watch the limited hours they are open. Parking on site.

Great place to get low cost craft products, they have different variety of things from fabric, rolls of different papers, boxes, materials, woods, foams i could go on and on, also have little shops to buy cheap craft things too. You pay a £10 subscription for the year then take a shopping bag and fill it for £6 each visit if your into making things and crafting you have to visit.

We had to put on a quick conference and the Gloucestershire Resource Centre was able to deal with our requests quickly and very well. The venue is fantastic and the lunch provided was above the standard I would have expected from anywhere. I recommend this venue for anyone who is considering a small to medium conference. We loved it.

Visited on behalf of my nursery on this occasion but I also have a family membership. Great for "junk modelling" and crafting resources. Some of the conventional items (glue, glitter, scissors, beads, etc) are a bit pricey but the recycled items are worth it; you get a lot for your money
