We have thousands of books, audio books, CDs, computer games and DVDs for you to choose from. We have items specially selected to help people gain the skills for life such as reading and writing. We also have Clear Vision (braille) books and information to help people with dyslexia.
We are just opposite Tesco in the Weston Favell Centre (see Useful Links on right-hand side of this page) - why not drop in and visit us.
