Pull up a chair at Camberwell Library! Our monthly book club meets on the second Tuesday of every month to share personal reading experiences-what made you laugh, cry, or think-in a completely relaxed environment.

Our focus is entirely on sharing personal perspectives-what made you laugh, how the characters felt, and how the book touched you. There are no right or wrong answers, and everyone's voice is valued. It is a fantastic, free way to meet lovely neighbours and carve out some joyful social time. Simply drop in or email us to grab a copy of our next read!

Real stories of people who found their people in London.

Hannah Cole · 3 June 2026 I moved to London for the job. The loneliness nearly sent me home. Arriving in a city of nine million people and feeling invisible - and the ordinary Tuesday evening that slowly changed everything. Stephen Pryce · 11 June 2026 I couldn't remember the last time I'd made a new friend. Then I made one at 41. My friendships had quietly thinned out over a decade, and I'd stopped believing new ones were still possible at my age. A weekly board game night proved me wrong. Margaret Ellison · 5 June 2026 At 68, I thought my world had got smaller. A walking group proved me wrong. After I retired and lost my husband, the house went quiet and the days got long. Then a Saturday walking group gave me back something I thought was gone for good.
