The theme is Read to the Beat – “to engage young minds with the magic of music”. Children are encouraged to explore 6 or more books over the summer holidays. Designed for any children aged 4-11 years, we also have a mini challenge for those under 4 years; children over 11 may also take part. Pop into the library on, or any time after, the 4th July to sign up.

Talk by Jenni McDonald, Thursday 10th September. You may have been to her fascinating talk about herbs and plants that you can use for common summer ailments. She will now give a second talk on what to use for common autumn and winter ailments. Jenni will provide a layman's introduction on how to make teas, tinctures and salves from the plant life in your garden and fields. She is self-taught and doesn’t have any qualification in herbal medicine but she has used everything that she is going to talk about herself! Doors open 7pm; talk starts 7.30. Get your free tickets from the library or Peephole in Long Buckby High Street when available nearer the time. Refreshments available.
