Red Box Hands-on Support for Local Toy Library Project
One of our Consultants has spent the day supporting a local charity the Harrogate and Knaresborough Toy Library
It’s always refreshing to break up the daily grind, especially during the summer holidays. With many of our education clients taking a well-earned break, we at Red Box decided to lend a helping hand to a local project needing some extra manpower.
The wonderful folks at HKTL are introducing a new barcoding system, which means cataloguing, sorting, and labelling over 800 cherished items played with by more than 150 family and social groups in the area. This not only supports familes and grups saving funds as they do not need to purchase the toys, but also contribbutes to a more sustainable way of life. An annual membership costs just £35 for a family. Our superstar consultant, Liz, dedicated a full day to this project and managed to label over 150 items. Go, Liz!
We will be thrilled to see the new catalogue system in action. It’s set to make admin tasks quicker and easier, saving time and costs in the long run. We hope the new system gets off to a flying start in the new term!
