It's our 10th Anniversary this year as a community library! A series of celebratory events have been hosted by the library throughout the year incl. our annual scarecrow trail, a special 10th birthday raffle which has raised £1,200 ( a list of prizes and raffle winners is available to view at the library) and a fabulous tea party for volunteers, past and present. Please see our gallery for pictures of these events. 

**Great News** We are thrilled to annouce that the 2025 Rothley village scarecrow trail raised £2,000! Leicester Round Table has also very generously donated a further £500 from proceeds raised from a bbq they ran during the weekend! Many thanks to all of our volunteers and to those villagers that made scarecrows, without you we wouldn't have had an event! The winner was the flamboyant display of 'Mr Men' on Hallfields Lane, and the close runner up was the 'Three Pigs and the Wolf' on Badgers Bank which was executed in beautiful detail. Photos of all scarecrows will be uploaded to our photo gallery shortly.

 Easyfundraising! it's easy to sign up, you just have to nominate us as your chosen charity, the online retailer then pays a small % of items purchased to us. Most major retailers take part. For more information you can use this link    How it Works | Easyfundraising

The Great Big Green Week 2021

Tweet
The Great Big Green Week 2021

The Library in collaboration with @SustainableRothley will be joining in with the Climate Coalition's Great Big Green Week, 18 – 26 September 2021. During this week you might notice lots of home crafted yellow canaries as part of the @canarycraftivist initiative, popping up around the village including the Library to highlight and celebrate how communities are taking action to tackle climate change and protect green spaces, and encourage others to get involved too. The Library will also be giving away second- hand books during the Great Big Green week 9.30-4.30pm, and hosting Canary Flocks during opening hours! Across the UK there will be a range of events from art installations, to concerts to community stalls, to climate cafes, and everything in between; hosted by teachers, bus drivers, sport clubs, artists, community groups, places of worship, builders and anyone who cares about climate change.   https://greatbiggreenweek.com @canarycraftivists
