Gardening help needed:
If cleaning isn’t your cup of tea, but you enjoy gardening, perhaps you would like to join the Volunteer Gardeners’ group? Now that the Barbara Gooch Memorial garden (Barbara’s Garden) is finished, (and doesn’t it look fantastic?) we need to maintain it and to carry on doing the things that the gardeners have always done on the land surrounding the library. We have traditionally met on the first Saturday of the Month, but it is likely that we need to be doing tasks more frequently now that we have the new garden to look after. We will be setting up a rota. Please let me know if you would be interested in joining this group. Susan Cowsill (Email Susan)
Also, please remember that we do offer a service of selecting and delivering books to your home. Please contact the library on 01202 886676 during opening hours to enquire about this service.
