We're thrilled to have our friend Alan visiting us on Tuesday 28th February. He'll be telling us stories about Porridge the Tartan Cat and his loveable rescue dog Max, who is appearing in his new book!

This event is free, but you can book a spot in advance on Eventbrite. It's aimed at ages 7-10. Please book a ticket for children attending, no need to book a ticket for adults. Children aged 7 and under should have an adult with them for the duration of the event.

This day is likely to be a school strike day, so we hope you'll come down and join in the fun.
