Nobody ever really outgrows Lego, but if you have a spare brick or two, why not donate it to Bishopston Library’s Just One Brick appeal, which will enable them to start a Lego Club for 7-11 year olds later this year. Look out for the large tub in the library.
Finally, we are pleased to accept Bristol pounds (cash only) on the door and the bar.
You can join the Friends, find out about events and support the library at facebook.com/bishopstonlibrary, at bishopstonlibrary.org.uk or contact us at friends@bishopstonlibrary.org.uk
