New Tricks

Activities for adults
Our New Tricks events are a varied set of activities aimed at adult library members that happen mainly in some of our town centre libraries.
Spaces are limited at events so booking is essential. Everyone can enjoy a great event and some tea, coffee and biscuits when possible.
