Home Library Service Volunteer - New Milton Library area

Home Library Service Volunteers help once a month by selecting books from their local library & visiting customers to exchange them. This service is a free service for anyone who can't get to the local library to borrow books due to ill health/mobility problems or caring responsibilities.

As a volunteer for the Home Library Service you can enhance somebody's life not only through the library materials that you take for them, but also through your companionship and contact you give them with the outside world.
