Expressions of interest invited for new West Wickham Library café

GLL is seeking an experienced, creative, professional catering operator to deliver a successful café in West Wickham Library, located at Glebe Way, in the heart of the community. The Library is being refurbished and is due to re-open in April 2025. 
  
In addition to providing a high quality service with great value product options, a key outcome also sought by this expression of interest is to provide meaningful opportunity to the community – whether through employment, social inclusion, economic or environmental benefits. 
  
This exciting and unique opportunity demands a strong emphasis on customer experience, innovative product options and the ability to meet the needs of library customers and local residents. 
  
The entire space, including counter, seating area and storage is 85m2 on the ground floor and mezzanine level. 
  
It is anticipated that the operator will offer pre-prepared food which can either be delivered daily, or stored in the provided on-site facilities which include fridge, freezer and shelving.

Chislehurst Library - Temporary relocation for refurbishment

The London Borough of Bromley will soon commence works on the refurbishment of Chislehurst Library.

Chislehurst Library will temporarily close at the current site, Red Hill, Chislehurst BR7 6DA from Wednesday 20th November 2024.

GLL is working in partnership with Bromley Council to relocate the library to accommodate these works, which are expected to be completed by late Summer 2025. 

From Monday 16th December 2024, a temporary library will open at Hornbrook House, High Street, Chislehurst BR7 5AB 

Please note that this will involve gradually moving library stock throughout October and November, so there may also be some disruption to the service ahead of this date.

Thank you in advance for your patience during this period. Further information about the library refurbishment will follow soon.
