Home Library Service Volunteer - Alton Library area

Would you like to make a difference by taking books/audio books to people in their own homes?

Home Library Service Volunteers help once a month by selecting books from their local library & visiting customers to exchange them. This service is for anyone who finds it difficult to access their local library due to mobility/frailty difficulties.

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 the contact you give them with the outside world.
