OPEN HOUSE @ RYHALL LIBRARY: FREE HOT DRINKS CONTINUE.
Residents are reminded that the Open House team will be continuing to offer a free hot drink to every visitor at our Tuesday and Friday afternoon sessions during this and next month. This compliments the service offered by the Warm Place team, and means that our library building is open to residents to use as a place where they can come to enjoy warmth and a free hot drink every Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday between the hours of 10.00 am to 4.00 pm.
As ever in these sessions, visitors are free to return or borrow books and jigsaws, or to use the superfast broadband computers for Family History research (free mentoring on Tuesdays) or other purposes of their own.
In addition, the Knit ‘n’ Natter Group meets on the second Tuesday of every month, and is always keen to welcome new members.
