Spectrophotometer
A modern working Spectrophotometer would be a great asset to the lab. We are currently making do with guess-work, and Macfarland standards for comparison.
Unfortunately replacement deuterium bulbs are expensive. seem like at least 100GBP; https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=spectropphoeter+deuterium#newwindow=1&tbm=shop&q=deuterium+bulb
Coomassie brilliant blue
We currently need "Coomassie Brilliant Blue 1" to be able to perform Bradform protein assays
"The Bradford protein assay is a spectroscopic analytical procedure used to measure the concentration of protein in a solution. It is subjective, i.e., dependent on the amino acid composition of the measured protein. The Bradford protein assay was developed by Marion M. Bradford." wikipedia

Foot pedal operated lab waste bin
In order to improve the general hygiene and to minimise the risk of loss of containment of GMO, it is recommended to use Hands free laboratory rubbish bins, (the ones that are operated with a foot pedal)
one of these examples would be good;

For making gels and stuff. It's also not that cheap...
