What is Derby Scrapstore?
Formerly called Play and Recycling Centre, Derby Scrapstore is a registered charity in Derby providing mountains of fantastic, recycled resources as well as opportunities for people to learn about how we can actively support our environment through reducing waste, re-using and recycling.
Founded in 1992, we offer recycled resources and materials and prevent these going into landfill. We encourage creativity and provide opportunities to gain creative skills and share our ideas for how resources can be used. We want people to re-cycle, recycle, repurpose and re-love materials and reduce landfill.
Our craft shop, scrapstore and paint scheme give access to low priced recycled materials such as wools, fabrics, beads, ribbon, haberdashery, vinyl sheets, blind fabrics, art paper and paints, craft resources and household paint.
