Library testimonials

Read and watch stories of how different people have benefitted from using our libraries and archives.

Chenelle, Service Delivery Manager at Church Street Library

It’s a space where you can feel comfortable, you can feel safe.

There’s a massive community here and they are involved in everything. If we can help anyone, I’m all for it.

I would love everyone to know the wide range of activities that we have. They range from bibliotherapy groups to Lego clubs for children. Some communities use our spaces, as well as reading groups, IT classes, and other things.

The staff in Westminster are so talented and so creative and are always listening to what everyone wants to see, and I think we do that really well.

It’s a space where you can feel comfortable, you can feel safe. You meet all sorts of different types of people. It’s basically anyone and everyone, and that’s the best thing, there’s no exclusivity.

With the IT support we have volunteers who give their time to teach people, at beginner level, how to use computers. 

I’ve loved libraries since I was little. It was my dream to work in a library and luckily, I’ve been able to do that.
