Just before the lock down the library was given some good quality games and books to sell to help with our fundraising. With the library closed we thought it would be a good idea to make them available by other means. So they will be outside No 4 Chantry Road from 10am tomorrow (Sunday). They will not be for sale as such but if you would like to make a donation to Derwent Valley BRIDGE Library that would be great. Some of the games still have their wrappers on, most of them are for primary school age children up to 12 years. Photos attached
