Just a reminder that the next meeting of the Gardening Club is on the 14th of May and is a “Social and Plant Sale”.
Bring any plants you don’t need that you would look to add to our sale but don’t worry if you do not have any spare plants, just come along and enjoy the social with drinks and nibbles and you might see a plant or plants you would like to take home.
The plants will be on sale for £1 or under so please bring cash if possible as it is not cost effective to use the Sumup. Any plants that are for sale need to be labelled please

Emma Bloor, local Author, Book Reading, Signing and Q and A.

Join us on Saturday, 24th May for an exciting event at 10am!
Please put Saturday 24th May at 10am in your diaries!!!
This is a first for our Community Library and we hope you will support and enjoy this event with us.
We are delighted to host a reading, q&a and book signing by the lovely Emma Bloor.
Emma is the proud Author of “Turned”. Turned is a book for Adults who love crime, drama and thrillers.
Turned is a twistingly great page turner of a book.
The story is based in, and the characters live in, locations within Lechlade, Highworth, Swindon, Burford and Fairford!!!
Need I say more? Are you tempted to check out Emma’s knowledge of our area?
We have 2 copies on our shelves right now for you to borrow.
There is so much to discuss about the plot, the characters and the area that we have made it our next Book Club’s read from Wednesday 7th May until Wednesday 4th June.
We would greatly appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you on the 24th.
Please let us know you are coming, and if you get a chance to read Emma’s book do bring some questions along with you.
For 18 years plus, on Saturday 24th May at 10am.
Thank you
