Your Community Managed Library and Social Hub in Long Buckby, serving all local and surrounding communities

It has been 5 years since our charity was formed and we have come on in leaps and bounds since then. We are now at a stage where we would like to welcome new people to help us continue to grow and develop.

We are seeking a Chair to the Board of Trustees, a Treasurer Trustee and non-role specific trustees who will also bring skills and perspectives to enhance the team.

Why not come along to our next Chatty Cafe on Tuesday 15th October from 10.30am to 12pm and be part of this lovely community. Look for the table with the yellow sign and stay for as long as you like, we’d love to see you there. Chatter & Natter tables are where people can sit if they are happy to talk to others and start or join a conversation, in a welcoming environment. Hundreds of venues offer Chatter & Natter tables, in cafes, pubs, libraries, hospitals – anywhere that people can sit and chat over a coffee.

Don’t miss out on HALLOWEEN at the LIBRARY!

Run by dedicated volunteers, trustees and our part-time National Lottery funded manager, we have been able to cover our running costs and improve our facilities through our fundraising and the support of our Parish Council. We are immensely grateful to everyone who has supported us so far.

However, we also need to think about the longer-term. So the Friends of Buckby Library & Hub has been set up to raise funds which will help sustain us for future generations. Please follow this link HERE to find out more.
