One of the great delights of our work is giving guests ‘hard hat’ tours, with us sharing Carnegie’s story, alongside our future plans, and them teaching us about their skills and interests! #BacktoLife

Our hard hat tours have been fascinating for guests finding memories of earlier library (or youth club) use, and for us to learn about the best future #BacktoLife uses
