I remember doing library reading challenges when I was a kid. A trip to the library and stopping at the chip shop on the way home used a be a weekly thing for me.
Sadly about 800 UK libraries have closed since 2010, so many children will no longer have access to a library. They may never have even used one at all.
My childhood experience was very similar - pop to the library and stop off at the café. The local library near me was a beautiful old rectory building covered in ivy and thankfully it’s still open.
It’s extremely sad to hear about the closures. Funding cuts can be so short-sighted…
