Special Film Club: Girl on the Train- TONIGHT!

We are running a special Film Club event on Tuesday 21st February to help raise money for Children with Cancer UK, The Head of Library Service's chosen charity for the London Marathon. The format is much as usual, but will start later than usual in the hope that this might boost attendance; please feel free to bring a friend/ partner with you this time!
We will screen The Girl on the Train 7.45pm for 8.15pm start and will be asking attendees to make a suggested donation of £5. We do usually ask for a contribution to running costs, so hope that this does not seem too steep (We've undercut Vue and The Odeon, anyway!).Venue as always is the Auditorium, Academic Centre, Maidstone.

Please do share with colleagues, the more the merrier, and you will be helping me reach the target of £2000 for this brilliant charity. Read more about Emma Aldrich's Marathon Challenge here: http://passmetheprosecco.blogspot.com
