The new Little Library was officially ‘opened’ by the Mayor of Aylesbury, Cllr Steven Lambert. Rev Vicky Burton, Rev Pete Wheeler, St Peter’s Church Community Garden Facilitator Dave Furze, Talkback Chief Executive Jeremy Hay. Members of the local community were also in attendance.
The Mayor of Aylesbury said: “Aylesbury Town Council is proud to fund this fantastic community project. On behalf of the Town Council, I would like to thank all the young people involved with the project at Talkback UK for their commitment to this project. I hope residents enjoy using the second free Little Library in our town.”
Our Chief Executive, Jeremy Hay, was thrilled the members were asked to build another library. He commented: “It was wonderful to see the little library, made by our members, handed over. At Talkback, our aim is to help our members make a positive contribution to the community they live in. For them to be able to make this library, which encourages people to recycle the books they love so that others can enjoy them, is just wonderful. They have loved every minute of this very important build.”
We’d like to thank the Mayor, Cllr Steven Lambert, for giving our members this opportunity and St Peter’s Church for providing such a good home for this library. We very much hope we can provide our support for other projects in the future.
