There are a very large number of toy libraries and toy museums throughout the UK, many of which have a charitable status. In addition to this however, there are also a small number of larger charitable organisations that have been set up to make a positive difference to the lives of children and their families through the use of toys and play.
Rather than focussing on just the donation of toys, these charities often work to provide advice, support and training to disadvantaged children and familes through the United Kingdom. If you know of a toy charity that should be listed in our directory, please let us know.
The NATLL's mission is to provide quality play opportunities through a network of leisure libraries and recreational facilities.
Founded in 1990 by the British Toy & Hobby Association, The Toy Trust donated over £137,000 to disadvantaged children and their families during 2007.
