A BOOK group for parents with young children starts in Ledbury next month.

Mums and dads with a love for literature can join the Ledbury Babe in Arms Book Group.

Babysitting is not a problem during the hour-long session as meetings take place at the Children’s Centre.

The group meets on the first Thursday of the month between 11am and midday, starting on June 5.

The scheme is based on similar groups in Leominster and Hereford, and uses books provided by the library.
