Library Update
The Harwich Library is set to undergo significant changes as part of a multi-million pound revamp for Dovercourt. The project is being delivered by Essex County Council in partnership with Tendring District Council as one of the Dovercourt Capital Regeneration Projects.
The project will see Adult Community Learning (ACL) return to Dovercourt town within a refurbished library, increasing the opportunities for residents to benefit from courses locally.
For further information or for any questions, please contact the project team at harwichlibraryaclproject@essex.gov.uk. They would be happy to assist you with your queries.
