Nim\"Tools<\/a>bin Community Tools & Equipment Library Project is available for access by community members for the purposes of participating in skills development workshops and undertaking basic repairs and maintenance around the home. The project has a particular focus on social housing tenants, long term unemployed and young people.<\/p>\n

The library also includes equipment from our Food Processing Equipment Library, craft equipment and catering accessories available to community groups to hire.<\/p>\n

The Tools and Equipment Library is the first step in a larger \u2018People\u2019s Shed\u2019 strategy identified in the SNCP to be ultimately located at 7 Sibley Street. The \u2018People’s Shed\u2019 is a concept which combines the men\u2019s shed, makers faire and hackerspace concepts and will require a new building to be erected.<\/p>\n

The aims of the tools library include improving access to tools and equipment, building skills and resilience, creating social inclusion opportunities between older and younger people in particular and improve\/maintain existing housing and community assets.<\/p>\n

The Tools and Equipment Library is a project of Nimbin Neighbourhood and Information Centre (NNIC) and the People\u2019s Shed is a strategy under the SNCP.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
