Friends and volunteers
Volunteer drivers for our home library service
Medway Libraries relies on volunteer drivers to deliver
books and other items to people who are housebound. If you are fit
and able to lift and carry books, have the use of a car and can
spare a few hours per month, please contact
Gillingham Library or complete the
online form.
Friends of Medway Libraries
The Friends of Medway Libraries was
formed in 2006 to raise the profile of libraries in Medway. The
group meets monthly, alternating between Gillingham Library
and Rochester Community Hub. New members are always
welcome. Read the latest Friends of Medway

The kinds of things members do include:
- serving refreshments at baby bounce and rhyme;
- taking books to people who are housebound;
- helping with library events;
- promotion stands at school fetes, shopping centres and other
public areas;
- running knitting for charity groups in libraries;
- running health walks from libraries;
- supporting readers' groups.
Medway Libraries is organising a dedicated group of friends
for Hempstead Library. Friends of Hempstead Library will be
working to promote library use within their own community.
If you are interested in joining the Friends of Medway
Libraries, please fill in an application form at your nearest
library, phone the chairman, Sheila Field, on 01634

Sheila will then explain what we do and invite you to the next
event.
