Friends of Brixham Library announce changes to 2020 season events calendar:

In the light of government announcements and as many of our members are near or over the age of 70,  or fall within the category of those with underlying health conditions, we have taken the decision to cancel all FoBL events until further notice. This is a huge disappointment but we are not alone in making such decisions.

First Friday of the Month Coffee Morning

These have been cancelled until further notice.

Met Office Open Day – Saturday 23 May 2020.

This visit has been cancelled by the Met Office and we hope to be able to rearrange it later in the year. If you have already paid for a place to attend the open day then our Treasurer will be refunding your money as soon as she is able to and will advise you when this can be collected from the library.

Walking for Health – Monday Walk

Until further notice these are now on hold and although we would encourage all to continue to take regular exercise, we are also mindful that our Monday walks are also great social occasions. It is because of this that we felt they should be cancelled for the foreseeable future.

The library will be opening on a self-service basis every weekday morning for 2 hours – see above.

If you are in any doubt about opening hours or about any of the planned event cancellations please contact Brixham Library 01803 853870.

In conclusion, these are challenging times and for the foreseeable future life will be very different for us all. Fortunately, we all recognise the power of reading and for once we will all have the opportunity to do just that and find time to read.
