UPDATE ON OLD HALSWELL LIBRARY BUILDING AT 381 HALSWELL ROAD

Kate Cleverly from Halswell Community Project

So we have been busy cleaning and tidying the Old Library / new Halswell Hub over the last few days.
We have been blown away by generosity and no longer need desks or office chairs for the Hub but if you still have couches etc we would love to hear from you!!
We will post a "shopping list" of things we need in the next day or so and will be running some fundraising activities over the weekend...

* Saturday from 9 - 4 we will be outside New World collecting donations to help with set up costs
* Kate and Keri will be down at the new Hub this Saturday from 2-4pm if you want to drop something off or just come say hi and have a look
* Halswell Market on Sunday - we will be collecting donations of items and money to help with costs

Find us at 381 Halswell Road - Corner Halswell and Sparks road.
