Ratby Community Library is a charity, volunteer-run library, cafe and community hub. We are completely self sustained, with our biggest income being the cafe. We have different support groups through the week ranging from a craft evening and bingo nights to 0-5 year old baby and parent groups. We need your help to keep the library and community hub going!

What we'll deliver:

  • Improve the café services
  • Renovate the outdoor space
  • Create better opportunities for the community
  • Continue serving Ratby and the surrounding villages

Why it's a great idea:

We are the heart of the village, creating a safe space for all ages. We benefit the entire community. If we don’t fundraise enough money to keep ourselves going, this space will be lost.

Steps to get it done:

  • Raise enough money to keep the library open into 2023!
