The Hub was filled with lovely people who came to enjoy scones, strawberries and cream, while relaxing with a glass of Prosecco or soft drink.<\/p>\n More than anything, the afternoon was about bringing people together. The room was alive with laughter, conversation and the happy buzz of friends catching up and new friendships being made. It was wonderful to see so many people enjoying each other’s company in such a warm and welcoming atmosphere.<\/p>\n The event was a great success, thanks to the hard work of our volunteers, and it perfectly demonstrated what the Hub is all about\u2014not just books, but creating opportunities for people to meet, socialise and feel part of the community. We hope to make afternoons like this a regular feature of our events programme.<\/p>\n Celebrations <\/strong><\/p>\n In September 2026, Wenvoe Community Library Hub will celebrate ten years as a community-managed library. Reaching a decade of continuous operation is a significant achievement for any volunteer-led organisation and reflects the dedication of our volunteers, supporters and the wider community.<\/p>\n To mark this important anniversary, the Library Hub will join with the Wenvoe Community Council’s Community Engagement Event on Saturday 3rd October. The celebration will provide an opportunity to reflect on ten years of achievement, recognise the many people who have contributed to the library’s success, and look ahead to the next chapter in its development.<\/p>\n Do you remember the old library? <\/strong><\/p>\n Before it became our modern Community Library Hub, the library was housed in what many will remember as the old school classroom. Perhaps you learnt there as a pupil, borrowed your first library book there, or have a funny story or special memory to share.<\/p>\n As we prepare to celebrate 10 years of Wenvoe Community Library Hub, we’re collecting memories and photographs from throughout the library’s history. We’d love to hear your stories\u2014big or small\u2014as they all help tell the story of this special place. If you have any memories, photographs or anecdotes, please get in touch: wenvoelibrary@outlook.com<\/a><\/p>\n Readers Circle (Held on the third Tuesday of the month at the Hub) <\/strong> What a lively and engaging afternoon. As always, one book led to another, and before we knew it, we had a wonderful discussion covering a wide range of authors, genres and recommendations.<\/p>\n It was a pleasure to welcome our visitor, Victoria, who joined us from the tiny county of Rutland.<\/p>\n Here are just a few of the books that sparked conversation:<\/p>\n The Book of Birds <\/em>\u2013 Robert Macfarlane & Jackie Morris<\/p>\n Tuesdays with Morrie <\/em>\u2013 Mitch Albom<\/p>\n The Place of Tides <\/em>\u2013 James Roberts<\/p>\n A Terrible Kindness <\/em>\u2013 Jo Browning Roe<\/p>\n The New Neighbours <\/em>\u2013 Clare Douglas<\/p>\n We’ll do our best to add these titles to the library’s collection wherever possible.<\/p>\n Whether you’ve recently discovered a brilliant read, have a book you didn’t enjoy, or simply love listening to others talk about books, we’d love you to join us. There’s no pressure\u2014just bring a favourite book or simply bring yourself!<\/p>\n Cuppa with a Coppa <\/strong> We were delighted to welcome Owen, Cyber Protect & Prevent Officer with South Wales Police, <\/strong>to the Hub for an informative and engaging session on cybercrime and online safety.<\/p>\n As fraudsters continue to develop increasingly convincing scams, Owen reminded us that anyone can become a victim. Criminals now impersonate banks, delivery companies, government departments, utility providers and even family members, often creating a false sense of urgency to persuade people to act before they have time to think.<\/p>\n
