Formed in 1998, the Friends of West Hampstead Library (FoWHL) is a community organisation consisting of around 400 library users – mostly local residents but also people who work in West Hampstead or are passing through.
Our main aim is to ensure that, at a time of deep cuts in council budgets, the library remains open, and continues to provide the level of core services that library users need and want, and which local residents fund through their council tax. Like the library itself, membership of FoWHL is free.

FOWHL has a new chair – meet David Stevenson, who was elected at our recent AGM to take over from Simon Inglis. A former BBC Radio journalist and editor, David has lived in West Hampstead for seven years and served on the FoWHL Committee for two years. He is only the third Chair in the 21 years of FoWHL's existence and we all wish him the very best. (Photo by Janet Nabney)
