The Freelearners Community Resource Library specialises in recycled educational materials. We provide sets, kits and resource boxes, which contain materials for a subject taster, specific topic or for general topic study. The subjects of our sets and boxes range from the basics like Maths and English to specific periods of History and the various branches of Science. Each resource box includes books, manipulables, art and building activities with many materials included, worksheets and equipment or tools where appropriate. Some of the boxes are age-specific, but many contain resources appropriate for children from ages 5 to 14 , so you can cover the topic with your entire family whilst tailoring the learning experience for each individual child.
The ethos of our library is to reuse resources that have been created and/or curated by self-directed learners. We want to support you in your educational journey by saving you time, stress and money in your use of resources. We hope you find something to suit your needs and perhaps sometimes a little surprise. However, if you don't, please let us know.
Our library is currently housed at Hogacre Common Eco Park. If you want to come and have a look to see what we have you are welcome to drop by when we are open, but please send us a message first:
