Library Friends Groups

A great way to volunteer your time by supporting your local library!

Three individuals stand behind a table in a library, set up for a charity event supporting Maggie's cancer care. The table is covered with orange Maggie's-branded tablecloths and displays food and drinks. A sign invites food and drink donations. Bookshelves are visible in the background.

Library Friends groups provide support with events and promotions and organise coffee mornings, book sales, quizzes, film clubs and more to raise funds for their libraries. 

Items funded by Friends groups have included shelving and furniture, display materials, art materials, instruments and toys that we use in family and adult groups.

Ask at your local library or email libraries@wirral.gov.uk for details of our Friends groups, subscription details and how you can get involved.
