New hub at Lymm Library open for business

THE new Sanctuary Hub at Lymm Library, a charity set up to oversee the delivery of community and business services to local residents is now open for business.

Also part of the project is the Lymm Business Centre, with all profits going to the Hub charity to fund its community work and pay rent to the Library run by LiveWire, to help keep the building open.
