Join our Advisory Group

Would you like to help get the Library of Things onto a long-term sustainable footing? We are looking for Stakeholders and Community Leaders who can bring in expertise and advice to form an Advisory Group to help develop the project to ensure it meets the local community.  If that is you – we would love to hear from you!

The main role of the Advisory group will be to guide and support a 12-month workplan to develop the Library of Things.

The Advisory Group will meet six times a year. For this role we ask that you commit to attending a minimum of four of these meetings and be willing to submit brief comments on issues under discussion in advance of any meetings you cannot attend. There will be a small amount of paperwork to read and respond to in the run up to and immediately after these meetings.

Outside of meetings we are also looking for our group members to champion Havant Library of Things and to signpost people to it when the opportunity arises.

This is a volunteer role for 12 months offering the chance for you to have a genuine input into creating a sustainable new environmental service for the local community.

Our official launch!

We were thrilled to welcome some of our funders for a small launch at Havant Library of Things at the end of January.

The launch saw funding partners including South Western Railway, Hampshire County Council and Community Rail Network as well as some of our volunteers join us on a sunny day at our premises at Havant Station.
