Free library book deliveries for people with disabilities

Did you know, Calderdale Council delivers books for free to people who can’t get to a library due to ill health, disability, age or frailty, and to carers?

The Home Library Service has gone from strength to strength over the last few years, providing a vital lifeline to vulnerable people during the COVID-19 pandemic, and then improving its offer and increasing the number of residents it supports.

If you or someone you know would benefit from the Home Library Service, please get in touch via the Council’s Webpage on the service: https://new.calderdale.gov.uk/libraries/home-library-service

The deliveries are now being made by an electric van for the first time, replacing the old diesel vehicle, reducing harmful emissions and improving air quality.
