Ross-on-Wye Toy Library

An open tea party was held at the Ryefield Centre Toy Library on Thursday, 10th March to help launch the library's new catalogue. 'Home Start', who work in Herefordshire with families experiencing stress or other difficulties, recently took over the running of the Toy Library, which was initially run by the WRVS, and would like to make people aware of its existence and generally raise the library's profile.

The Toy Library is housed in the Ryefield Centre and is open every Thursday afternoon, including the school holidays. Toys can be hired for a fee of around £0.25 per week.

For more information, please call 'Home Start' on 01432 371212.

Pictured left are David Williams - Chairman of Home Start, Nigel Gibbs - Mayor of Ross-on-Wye with Celia Fulford and her three children, Lydia, Molly and Edith Fullford-Knibbs at Thursday's tea party.
