Stella Coulson Retirement

This week we say fond goodbyes to Stella Coulson who retires on Friday after 8 years with the MTW Trust Libraries. Stella originally started work at the library at the old Pembury Hospital, then moved to the Kent & Sussex before the new building opened at TWH.

We will miss Stella and wish her all the very best for her retirement.
