The Reading Friends group meet weekly at Hastings Library to talk about reading and anything else that interests them. You don't have to read anything before the session and everyone is welcome so come along, meet new people and share stories together.

No booking is required and you don't have to be a library member to take part.

Come along to our organised Board Games Sessions led by Adam and Barry. Meet new people, develop your strategies, or learn to play a new game! All abilities are welcome.

Sessions are free to access, just drop in to join in. 

Suitable for adults and children aged 8+. All children must be accompanied by an adult

If you would like to learn how to use a computer – or improve or refresh your computer skills but cannot commit to a formal training course – IT For You could be the answer.

We are offering free 60 minute one-to-one sessions with our volunteers. We can help with email, job searching and applications, CVs, the NHS app, Universal Credit, social media, Microsoft Office and more.

Call 0345 60 80 196 to book your free session.

Last year Henry and Tim were enthusiastically received by our customers:
“Interesting, entertaining, funny and free what more can you ask for?”
“It was really funny and moving!”
This is another chance to catch Henry and Tim’s Poetry Hour.
