Congratulations to Elizabeth Hooper, Staff Nurse on Ward 22 at Tunbridge Wells Hospital, who has won our recommend the Library to a friend competition!  Elizabeth's entry stood out and she wins a £20 Westfield/ Royal Victoria Place shopping centre voucher for her effort.  The competition was run in conjunction with the TWH Library Open Day and we had more than 30 entries to choose from.  Here is the winning entry:

I would recommend the Library to a friend because:
The staff are helpful and friendly
New surroundings
Plenty of computers
Useful learning tools
Resource of back-dated journals
A must for anybody!
