This month's and regular activities newsletter for Gainsborough Community Library.

As you will probably agree we offer so much at our library, something for everyone. However, if there is an activity or event you would like to see us run within the library, please get in contact with us V4GCL at Gainsborough Community Library and we will discuss at a meeting.

We also have volunteering opportunities available if you have some free time and would like to support us with running the cafe or helping with events and activities.

Our kindness racks are running short of adults clothes donations.

If you have any clean clothes that you do not want/need anymore and are happy to donate to us then please drop off to Gainsborough Community Library and place on our racks near the toilets.

If you have any spare hangers to donate then these would be greatfully accepted.

If you have any tote bags that you don't use/need, Gainsborough Community Library fruit and veg pop up shop would appreciate these.

If you use our library pop up shop, could you please check your cupboards for any of our tote bags, bags like in the photo below or any other bags we have used and drop back to us.

Could you please kindly bring a bag to transfer your fruit and veg on a Thursday morning, to help us gather back in enough tote bags to make up the following weeks fruit and veg.

If you know any company or organisation that has tote bags they give away with their logos on for advertising, it would be appreciated if you could ask if they would kindly donate us some.

Thank you for all your support.

Gainsborough Community Library plea- if you have any of our bags like these 1s or tote bags, please can you bring these back to us asap so we can continue to run fruit and veg pop up shop as we are very short again and we have purchased over 1000 bags. As you can imagine these are quite costly to us and means we can give less to community.
