Good news today! David Hodge, the new SCC Leader, has abandoned plans to ‘Community partner’ the second tranche of libraries, which included Knaphill and West Byfleet.
You can see the SCC press release here.
(Some small concessions for the first tranche, with a member of staff for 20% of current opening hours, but no further climb-down yet. )
But very good news for Knaphill!
