Events for Next 7 Days

This class is designed for those who want to use sewing machines, for repair and creative projects but don’t have experience.  It will cover threading machines, all core stitching techniques, handling materials and problem solving. This short course is the best grounding to coming back into the library to use the machines in your own time.

NB: This is a one-off course with the same session taught every Monday. Please only book on to one session.

Bookbug sessions are free, friendly and fun sessions of stories, songs and rhymes for babies, toddlers, pre-schoolers and their parents/carers to enjoy together. Each session lasts around 30 minutes and they have been designed to support children’s development while having fun. They take place in a very relaxed environment and are a great opportunity to spend some quality time with your little one, meet other families and have fun together.

Numbers are limited and booking is essential. Places should be booked per family; reservation of children's places is not required i.e. 1 adult and 2 children require 1 place.
