Friends of Home Park showed this video at the family Fun Day recently. It’s about a boy from Malawi in Africa. He taught himself how to build a windmill to help irrigate his families land by reading books at a local library. Be built the windmill. He saved his family from starvation.
Sydenham Library is under threat of closure. If it is shut it’s gone forever. The library is an essential part of the regeration of Home Park. The library have been incredibly supportive of the improvements that have been made in Home Park, especially with the Family Fun Day.
Recently we have seen two terrible tragedies in Fairlawn Park. One problem young people face is not having things to do, being bored and not seeing the opportunities that life can bring. Taking away a valuable local asset like the library would be a massive mistake. It’s well used and an important part of Home Park and the regeneration of the area.
Even if you don’t use the library that much, if you believe in the library system, please support the campaign to save it:
