Cantley Community Library
People: Improving people’s mental wellbeing
We would like to develop some land by the library into an outdoor community space where people can gather and socialise.
About this cause
We offer the services of a community library, from the lending of books, IT access and support (including printing and photocopying), to educational and social events and activities. The activities are wide and varied, including social groups, children's activities, coffee mornings, Summer/Christmas fayres and educational courses, such as the recent one on Family History.
How this cause brings people in the community together
The library currently offers refreshments to our customers but these have to be consumed inside the building. By adopting the outside space to make it a secure seating area, we can offer refreshments outdoors, ensuring people can take advantage of nice days and meet up with others from the local community.
