Chair’s Report for 2022/23
We have been trying new ways of raising funds, and so tried raffling 100 squares to win an Easter Egg – this did not prove popular. A quiz in May was more successful and raised some income as well as being a very good and competitive evening.
There was quite a considerable sum made through donations – there are collecting tins on the counters and the money is split between Suffolk Libraries and the Friends group.
We have continued to sell pens, poly pockets and envelopes – these provide a steady income throughout the year.
We have also supported activities taking place in the library such as celebrations for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and children’s crafts: kitchen crafts proved to be very popular.
