An illustrated book cover by Jessie M King entitled "The High History of the Holy Graal". It shows a woman in a gown and an armoured knight.

Library Social is a series of relaxed events inspired by themes and items from the Library's collection. Sessions may include music, crafts or storytelling depending on the theme. Refreshments are provided.

These sessions are for people living with dementia and their families, carers and supporters. Please contact Learning & Outreach Officer, Beverley Casebow, at learning@nls.uk to reserve a place or for more information.
