A recent article in Family & Children Go Green states that "The average UK Child is getting £262.00 in toys each Christmas - most destined for landfill along with their excessive packaging with huge plastic windows and polystyrene mounts". In response to this Derbyshire Toy Library Network (DTLN) has commissioned Toy Library Gift Vouchers to be professionally printed on sustainable card. These can be purchased direct from the Network or through member toy libraries available in multiples of £5.00 or £10.00 These Vouchers will enable parents, carer's, friends and extended family members.. to experience the great resources of our member Toy Libraries, whilst saving parents money, reducing landfill and offering a huge range of toys and play opportunities to children.  The Vouchers can be exchanged for memberships and/or toy loans paid up front which will last for considerably longer than the usual purchase of one toy!! Children's Centres, Schools & Strategic Partners will be able to purchase vouchers from Derbyshire Toy Library Network with their LEA Flexible Funding Budget for services, toys and resources which have been identified by a C.A.F (Child Assessment Framework) Assessment. The vouchers can also be used by Schools & Voluntary Groups to top up their Inclusive Membership / Toy hire packages Give the network a call 0845 310 2738 or e-mail for availability info@derbyshire.toylibrarynetwork.org
