📚 A new chapter begins in Jacka! Book lovers, this one's for you!

A brand-new Street Library has arrived in Wake Crescent, Jacka, thanks to local resident Bhupinder.

The library is already creating a buzz, with neighbours stopping by during installation to check it out and see what it's all about. To help kick things off, Bhupinder is also stocking the library with a selection of children's books, ready for local families to borrow, share and enjoy.

The Street Library is a wonderful way to connect with your community, one page at a time.

Mingle is proud to have supported this initiative, by providing the Street Library flat pack to local residents. Did you know this was designed by Street Library volunteers and made by the Shed.
