OUR PATRON

We are most grateful to our constituency MP and former Conservative Party Leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith for becoming our Patron. Sir Iain has been a staunch supporter of the Community Library throughout its entire life and has often successfully defended the organisation in times of peril.
