The Library Service in West Sussex is on the lookout for more volunteers to help give support across the county.
Currently, 334 volunteers are actively contributing in 13 different roles across 36 libraries and within local communities.
Now, the County Council is appealing for more people to join—particularly those who can support housebound residents by helping them access books and other library resources from home.
Councillor Duncan Crow, Cabinet member for Community Support, Fire and Rescue said: “Our 36 libraries really are at the heart of the community and the volunteers are an integral part of it, helping people with a wide range of needs, from children who take part in the Summer Reading scheme, people who need help with their digital skills, adults who want to improve their literacy and bringing people with dementia and their carers together for therapeutic singing.”
