Welcome to the St Paul's Jigsaw Library
What is a jigsaw library?
Like a normal library, you can borrow things from us. But instead of books, it is jigsaws! We have a whole range including some larger sized piece jigsaws for those who struggle to hold smaller pieces, and dementia friendly jigsaws too. Once you have joined the library, and reserved puzzles you can take out 2 puzzles for a month at a time. They can be picked up or dropped off on a Wednesday between 9am and 11am from the St Paul's Parish Hall. If you are unable to travel to do that, we can seek to deliver and collect them from your door in a Covid safe manner. (NB In this time of national lockdown, our Parish Hall will not be open for pick ups or drop offs. We will deliver and collect the jigsaws from your doorstep, doing so in a covid-secure way.)
