Barnet to celebrate works of Charles Dickens
Residents in Barnet are being encouraged to find out more about the works of Charles Dickens.
A series of events are being held in the London borough that will offer people the opportunity to read, discuss and debate his texts.
Anyone looking for flats to rent in Barnet may be interested in the list of activities - such as walks, tours and exhibitions - they can get involved in during the Cityread project.
The festival focuses on Dickens' classic text Oliver Twist and is taking place in recognition of the fact it is 200 years since he was born.
Natalie Harmer, senior librarian and Cityread co-ordinator for Barnet said: "We have put together a diverse programme of free community events that span across the month, so there really is something for everyone at Barnet Libraries this April."
Ms Harmer added it is good to see book lenders are at the forefront of the project.
