Meet Isobel the Jigsaw 1

Name: Isobel 

Occupation: The master of shape cutting

Superpower: Versatility

She may be wee, but Isobel is our star tool at the library. And she deserves the praise – not only was she our first ever loan (to a lady whose cat got too fat for its catflap), she can boast a serious amount of carbon reduction. Jigsaws are a surprisingly versatile tool that help our members create everything from bookshelves to unicorn-shaped chopping boards. Your donation will keep Isobel in tip-top condition so her and all the projects she creates can sparkle.

Isobel is ready for any project our members can think of. Can you support her to help Edinburgh have a more shared future?
