Keeping the library as a thriving centre for the whole community
Friends of Clifton Centre and Library
The Friends of Clifton Centre and Library (FoCCaL) exist to promote the library as a place where local people can come together to meet new people, and learn.
We are a voluntary group of local residents, and we welcome anyone who would like to get involved. We host a variety of events and support other groups who run not for profit events or courses for the community. If you would like to help or have any suggestions, please get in touch.

DESERT ISLAND BOOKS - THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED
Sun 16 Nov 4.30pm
Bristol has a growing number of independent bookshops, several of which have been recently celebrated in The Bookseller’s awards. In this session, you will learn about the history and customer base of three of them, and hear their owner/managers’ recommendations for Desert Island reading.
Book Club
Our book for 25th November will be Gabriel's Moon by William Boyd.
Clifton Crafters
We all craft ideas we have started and now they are lurking in a draw unloved - dig them out and come and share a morning of knitting, crochet, tapestry, cross stich, rag rugs or whatever you would love to resurrect or mend!
Table Tennis
All levels welcome. Every Monday and Wednesday
