We need you! 🌟

A bit of an honest post - we are now open and working out of our temporary home in a porta cabin which can be accessed from the Spinney Walk Entrance.

Our essential building works are slowly but surely taking shape but until we can reopen fully, our income is extremely curtailed at the moment so please consider supporting us by simply stopping by for a chat and hot drink.

Every penny we can raise goes straight back into the library to ensure our community continues for many years ❤

Many thanks for your ongoing support!
