BURBAGE COMMUNITY LIBRARY couldn’t run without its team of Volunteers and we are always looking for people to join our friendly happy team. From operating the Library system and interacting with our Library members, there are lots of other interesting activities, also all run by Volunteers - Fund-raising, Events, Social Media, Running Community Groups, Decorating and looking after the building, maintaining the Garden.
If you are thinking of joining us then do please come in and pick up an Application Form at the Library, e-mail Carole Kemp (Volunteer Coordinator) at furrygang2@hotmail.com or contact her on 01455 446234.
We won’t turn away any willing helpers and don’t worry if you haven’t worked in a Library before – none of us have. It’s easy and you work the hours you want to when you want – there is no pressure at all.
''Hi I’m Carole Kemp Volunteer Co-ordinator I moved to Burbage from Rugby along with my Husband Andy and our 4 cats in 2015 after buying a bungalow due to having knee problems. So far we have enjoyed living here and we are hoping this will be our last move. We have 2 grown up children both have left home and also have 2 grandchildren. I wanted to get involved in the community as I was not working and my husband spotted an advert asking for Volunteers to help out at the Library as it had just been transferred over to be run by local willing Volunteers.
After a chat with the Volunteer Co-ordinator she asked me if I would be her assistant as I had a great administration background which was what was needed. I agreed and went through all of the training with all of the other Volunteers and was there on the day that we officially opened. Not long after the Volunteer Co-ordinator left due to getting a full time job and I took on the role which I have now been doing for about 18 months.
I enjoy all of the camaraderie that goes on within the Library with the Volunteers and we have many a giggle – at each other’s expense. We also get together regularly so all of the Volunteers that are able to can meet each other and have a social evening – along with most of the Management Committee.''
