Crafty library users’ ‘grand’ gift to Bury Hospice

Members of the card craft group that meets at Radcliffe Library have raised £1,000 for Bury Hospice by selling cards they have made over the last year.

The group meets every Thursday from 10am to noon, and is one of many social groups that meet in local libraries and are open to all.

For information on all library services, see www.bury.gov.uk/libraries.  You can also follow at facebook.com/BuryLibraries or Twitter @BuryLibraries
