Rhymetimes at #roadelibrary - please note we're no longer asking you to pre-book. From this week we're switching to a 'first-come/first served' system
When the private companies that run our public services collapse, it's taxpayers that end up footing the bill. That's why I've signed a petition to make sure these companies are fit for purpose. speakout.38degrees.org.uk/campaigns/make…
Rhymetime is running as usual this week - Wednesday 3rd, 11 am. All under 5s welcome with their caring adults
Full launch announcement due imminently, but for now, here's the link to the Government Petition to ring-fence #library funding, which went live today. Please RT and sign if you can to prompt a Parliamentary debate in time for the next Spending Review petition.parliament.uk/petitions/2287…

@FORLib Hello from up the road in Roade! Just thought you'd like to know-each of our classes are now named after a famous children's author! We love reading & love a good story! There are so many to pick from-lots of books to investigate! Let's get stuck in! #passionforreading
A huge thank you from Allan to all the customers, volunteers and Library Friends for making my time at #roadelibrary so enjoyable
