Do you have experience in catering? And would you like to get involved in a local community organisation?
Buckby Library & Hub needs someone to lead on restarting our light refreshments for visitors. We hope to be able to begin again in the rear garden from mid-April and inside again from mid-May.

Gloves Donation for Buckby Angels
Northamptonshire Community Foundation annually run their Winter Well-being Appeal to raise monies to be awarded to local community groups whose activities protect and help local older and vulnerable people in supported environments over the Winter months. They ask for people who receive the winter fuel payment, and can afford to do so, to think about giving some or all of their winter fuel allowance, or a donation to the Winter Well-being appeal to support those who are less fortunate to stay warm, safe and healthy over the winter. This year, with many more older and vulnerable people being isolated due to the pandemic, one of their donors suggested asking for donations of fingerless knitted gloves.
