Audio Book Group

A relaxed and friendly group for those suffering from a Visual Impairment. We meet at 1.30 pm on the last Thursday of the month in Hexham Library, members are loaned an MP3 audio book to listen to each month and then discuss at the meeting. Help with transport may be available. Please contact us if you would like to join the group.

April 2020 update: we're sending out copies of the latest audiobook for this group , please get in touch if you haven't received yours yet.
