Hello Swansea!
Another week, another town and today we kicked off Reading Communities Week in Swansea.
It was all hands on deck today, since we needed to get the books and display stands out to all the businesses taking part. Swansea's obviously the biggest place taking part, so it took a bit more time to find everyone. The people were all great though - it seems to be a friendly place, everyone really helpful even when we got a bit lost trying to find Townhill Community School!
All kinds of different businesses took part once again - from the Starbucks coffee shop in the Borders store on the Fforestfach shopping complex to the Villiers' Arms pub, Zest Cafe Bar on the waterfront to the Alexandra Road Dental Practice in Gorseinion, and the Fforestfach Medical Group.
