We enjoyed it so much last month we’re back again 🙂 Our next Library session will be on Friday 1st October from 10:00 – 12:00 at Hasland Village Hall. We plan to run much like the last session, so if you plan to attend you MUST pre-register by emailing kate@waystocarry.co.uk. We need you to pre-register…
We’re back !!!! And we’ve missed doing this so much. For the first time since March 2020, Chesterfield Sling Library will be running a full free-to-attend Library session on Friday 3rd September from 10:00 – 12:00 at Hasland Village Hall. It will be a bit different, and pre-registration is essential, so if you plan to…
AJ, Erika and Kate will be running a small Sling Library on Wednesday 7th July 10:00 – 12:00. This will be a test session for getting Chesterfield Sling Library up and running again. The session will be run outdoors. The session will be open to existing members and new members. Attendance will be limited to…
I’ve got no update yet as to when we will be able to run sessions, it’s going to depend on when our venues are willing to let us in, and how we can operate is going to depend on the venues distancing and hygiene policies. I will let you know as soon as anything changes….

But we need to wait… Until venues open again Until running sessions won’t risk the health of our volunteers or our attendees Things will probably have to run differently, but we’ll make that OK. Until sessions can…
Coronavirus has had a huge impact on Chesterfield Sling Library. Our session venues closed, some reopened briefly and then closed again. We risk-assessed, risk-assessed and risk-assessed some more which of our ‘normal’ in-person services we could offer, and concluded that we couldn’t guarantee the safety of our clients, our volunteers or ourselves by providing anything…
Library in-person services remain closed for your and our safety. This includes Library Sessions, Workshops and Consultant Appointments. As a small volunteer-run not-for-profit community project we do not have the resources to offer a safe and consistent in-person service at present. Current loans: we are behind on admin due to our own family commitments and…
With Chesterfield now being at Tier 2 COVID alert, as a small volunteer-run project we have taken the difficult decision that we must now stop running the Consultant Appointments as well as the Library Sessions. We are not set up to provide you with the level of protection that we feel we have a duty…
This is a tough one to write… Currently, due to COVID-19 restrictions, we are unable to say when we will next be able to schedule any form of Library session. Putting aside criteria and exemptions, it just wouldn’t be ethical for us to invite either our volunteers or the vulnerable parents and children of Chesterfield…
In the light of the most recent government advice, that gatherings be restricted to 6 people, Chesterfield Sling Library and Chesterfield Venues (who run Hasland Village Hall) have agreed that the planned session for 18/09/20 should be cancelled. I will be in touch with each of you that had expressed an interest in attending to…
