Our campaign to save our library has had fabulous support! @ElmbridgeBC @DominicRaab @SurreyNews @MarySheldon9 @JohnOReilly55

Happy #LibrariesWeek. I had no money growing up. Luckily, all my favourite things were free. Friends, nature & learning. There was a local library. Sometimes I was the only one in it. Sometimes the odd drunk popped in to vomit. Anyway, it all turned out OK.

It’s going to be a great celebration @MarySheldon9 @hershamlibrary @DominicRaab @mlycdystmp @ElmbridgeBC @your_elmbridge @HershamSociety

October is celebration month for Hersham Library! Keep the 10th free and come along to afternoon tea at the library. We’d love to hear your recollections from the last 60 years!!

Hersham Library is 60 years old on Monday 10th October. Please celebrate with us at our special anniversary tea party 2.00pm-4.30pm @SurreyLibraries
