Borrow Don’t Buy’s members save money, space in their homes and reduce their environmental impact—All whilst supporting our digital inclusion project.
We believe you should have access to the things you need, without it costing the Earth!
We are currently running a Crowdfunding campaign—BDB’s Big Borrowing Bonanza—in the hope of accessing match-funding which will help us raise funds for:
- improving our inventory
- developing our digital inclusion project and
- getting more people borrowing
We have several different rewards available to suit all types of Borrowers, businesses and anyone that wants to support the work we are doing! You can head over to our campaign page to read more.
Please share this with anyone in your networks who might benefit. You can read our impact reports and find out more about what we do on our website.
Feel free to get in touch at hello@borrowdontbuy.co.uk if you have any other ideas on how we could collaborate in the future, and as always thank you for your support, we cannot do what we do without our community!
