Bookfair raises much needed funds for community library

Thanks to Richard for this update from Bembridge Library. Ed


Bembridge Community Library held a very successful Bookfair last month, raising more than £100 towards essential funds.

Organised by volunteers including Glynis Cunliffe, Chris Brennan, Chris and Nick Thornton, and Marion and David Perchard, the sale offered nearly new and good-condition books generously donated by library users and well wishers.

Lead volunteer Chris Brennan said that the library has an extensive range of books for sale and users are always welcome to browse and buy.

Chris said,

“Proceeds from book sales are a valuable source of income.

“We’re now looking forward to organising our next event, our Easter Coffee Morning, to be held on Saturday 4 April at the library where apart from teas and coffees we will be offering live music, a cake stall, a bring and buy sale and a Tombola.”
