Climbing the hill!

The Rural Libraries Network depends, to a large extent, on the supportive backing of a friends' association in England: Sarah's Rural Library Fund. These lovely people do everything they can to raise funds and thus underpin our activities and tasks.

Here is an example that touches us deeply:

The intrepid collaborators of Sarah's Rural Library Fund are back in action this weekend. Paul Mansell, an old friend of Sarah's, will be running in the Great North Run to raise money for Rural Libraries on Sunday 7 September. It is the world's largest half marathon and Paul will be running with 60,000 other runners through the iconic city of Newcastle in north-east England.

Our thanks go to Paul and to the family of Sarah Heery, an English friend who passed away many years ago but who continues to help us from where she is.

Thank you. Now and forever.
