Since December 2021, Wickford residents have a modern, vibrant library located in the Willows Shopping Centre. The library includes:

  • comfortable furniture
  • spaces where you can sit, study, work and meet friends
  • an area with charging points where you can work with your own devices
  • a large table where groups can meet
  • baby changing facilities and an accessible customer toilet
  • sensory equipment as part of a colourful and welcoming children’s library
  • free computer and WiFi access

To complement the library service, Citizens Advice (CA) provide a Video Access Advice Point where residents can book appointments with trained CA volunteers.

 

"The library provides us with a space away from the home environment to complete [my son’s] learning tasks. Without this dedicated space, educating him would be a much greater challenge as the home environment affords many more distractions for us both." - Library customer

 

"[The library service] enables me to borrow a wide range of books including audiobooks which I would otherwise not be able to afford." - Library customer
