The Heritage Seed Library seed list has been published.
https://www.gardenorganic.org.uk/shop/seeds

I'm not a member now but I like to see what's on offer in case any turn up in seed swaps elsewhere.

There's more to the HSL/Garden Organic than seeds, Vinny.
I've just acquired 2 of the beans on their list from the Incredible Seed Library which is open to everyone - no membership required. Costs £4 to cover P&P and you can have up to 10 packets of seeds for no extra charge. The Seed List is at https://www.incredibleseedlibrary.com/

No, not at all. The Incredible Seed Library (ISL) has been set up by Maggie Carr in West Wales but is UK wide. There's a Facebook page too. I've had seeds from the ISL several times - I also send in seeds for the Library and have grown some specific seeds from the library to bulk up the stock of seeds.
I've mentioned the ISL on here previously - I know some G&G members have joined it.
To whet your appetite, I've just received:-
Montezuma & Aranesco DFBs
Czar Runner beans
Crimson Flowered Broad beans
Whippersnapper and Aurora tomatoes
Miniature White cucumbers
Red Iceberg lettuce
North Georgia Candy Roaster squash
Welsh Giant sunflowers.

Many of them are grown from Real Seeds seeds.

Out of that list above, I have grown Czar runners and Crimson flowered broadies before.
