The Corn Exchange Newbury desperately needs a new permanent home for its creative participation work which last year engaged 27,000 people from Newbury and beyond. The Old Library is the perfect new space for this work which uses creative activity to reduce social isolation; improve mental health and build confidence.

In September, my colleagues and I will be taking part in the World's Largest Inflatable 5K Obstacle Run to raise money for the Old Library Campaign! I'm asking everyone I know to support my fundraiser to help transform the Old Library into a community hub and change lives.
