Save Hoylake library

The Issue

Hoylake library is a lifeline for everyone - young and old. It's used by the elderly to tackle isolation, and first-time parents who want to meet other families. It also offers people free education, internet and is one of the only free spaces were people can spend time. It could also be a space to encompass other community groups upstairs & bring people together within the local community to share projects, learning & skills. 

There’s an argument that footfall has decreased but that is due to hours of opening been cut & not demand. Community action has saved it before. Please help us campaign to keep this important space & show the council how utilised it can be if given the opportunity to be accessed. It’s everyone's right to have library and others may not be accessible to members of the community who struggle to travel. I believe we can save this one by showing our local councillor and law makers how much we love it.
