Marking 80 years since the end of World War II in Europe, the coffee morning takes place on 8 May from 10am to midday. As well as providing an opportunity to share memories and celebrate peace, a member of Dudley’s Healthy Ageing Team will also be on hand to give information about their services to anyone who wants it.
The science of fasting is the topic on 9 May from 1.30 to 3.30pm when author Tina Shelton speaks. Having written five popular books on health and wellness over the last twenty years – including Gut Health and Fasting for Beginners, Revitalize Your Brain with Fasting after 40 and Fasting Secrets for Chronic Conditions – she will be discussing science-backed strategies on nutrition, fasting and sustainable lifestyle changes and is happy to answer questions.
On Thursday 15 May from 10am to 2pm, there will be a need-to-know session on mental health to mark Mental Health Awareness Week and, on Tuesday 20 May from 7pm to 9pm, author Briony Marshall will be chatting about her latest novel Hooked.
The month ends with author Darren Pearce and artist Gillian Pearce talking about Darren’s new dark fantasy novel Fate’s Hand at 7pm on 29 May.
“The programme of free events and activities we organise is based on us making sure there is always something for everyone – whatever their age or background,” said Claire Williams, Dudley librarian.
“We’re a community venue where people can get together, learn and share experiences in a fun, friendly environment.
