Elgin: Moray Council Libraries and Information Services Silent Book Walk Wednesdays

Our Silent Book Group is back!

Come to the library on Wednesday 23rd October from 10:00am and chat with Living Streets about how 'A Wee Walk Works Wonders' - learn how short walks in our beautiful local community can be so beneficial for our mental & physical health and our environment, and how you can get started!

Then meet us outside Elgin Library at 11:00am for our popular Silent Book Group. We go for a walk while all individually listening to the same audiobook. We stop for coffee and cake halfway through at Grampian Furnishings, and talk about what we have heard so far. Then we will walk back along the River Lossie to finish, hopefully around 1:30-2:00pm, and see how many of us will continue listening!
