Village Matters

 News from our local libraries 

In Shepperton library I am delighted to an-nounce that we are slowly being able to re-start some of the events that we used to run (which we had to stop due to Covid). 

We have begun our popular Rhymetime again. This runs every Tuesday at 11am. Spaces are VERY limited so if you would like to come along to a session, please come into the library or email us at Shepperton.library@surreycc.gov.uk to book. Maximum 1 adult per 2 children 

Every first Saturday of the month Cllr. Maureen Attewell is holding drop-in council surgeries where you can come in and talk to her from 1.45-3.45pm 

We have also restarted one of our reading groups that run every last Friday of the month from 2.30-3.30pm in the library. If you are interested in joining, please enquire at the desk 

We are currently looking for several volunteers. We are looking for someone to host a weekly Rhymetime on a Friday at 11am. We are also looking for several people to organise and run our Shepper-ton library coffee mornings, a general events coordinator (I am open to any suggestions of clubs you would want to create) and someone to volunteer to be a Digital Buddy. 

Please drop into the library or email us if you would be interested in finding out more about these opportunities
