🎃 Trick or Treat, smell our feet, give us something good to... Read?! 🎃

Good people of Northumberland, we invite you to venture out this week into your local library where we promise to hand out only treats 📚. That's right, not a trick in sight.*

*Hallowe'en- themed fancy dress is not essential, but if you want to make the effort then we promise to appreciate it.

Parents, guardians, carers, grandparents, emergency Aunties and responsible adults of Northumberland... this is not a drill.

This is your reminder that you can handle whatever this Half Term holiday throws at you. Remember, there are no school runs, no early morning arguments about the putting on of shoes and no uniforms to wash.

But, we know, we hear you. Whatever will we do to keep the precious little darlings occupied? Where will we go? How much will it cost? Well now, that's where we come in. We know we've said it before but we'll say it again. In fact, as long as we live and breathe, we will never stop saying it.

Come. To. The. Library.

It's free. It's safe. It's welcoming. We have books and comfy chairs. We have computers. We have Wifi. We have crafts. We have warm and cosy buildings where you can spend as much time as you like without having to explain yourself to anyone. We have actual real-life superheroes with magical powers (also known as Library Assistants). And, we have activities galore, including exciting workshops as part of this year's Big Draw Festival.

So, we'll see you there, right? You're gonna click this link and get the cherubs booked in, aren't you? This one, right here 👉 https://bit.ly/3W26wMq

We're getting a head start on Green Libraries Week this Saturday, 11am - 1pm celebrating International Repair Day with a super-sized Fix-It repair workshop session with Transition Tynedale at Library. In addition to the usual mix of fixers waiting to help save your item from landfill there'll be lots of chances for families to get hands on with mending skills from basic bike maintenance to creative mending tips. Free and open to all - come and find out how we're working together to make repair happen in our community.
