Kevin Baldwin, Chief Executive of the Association says "We have been in the process of digitising the books since April 2008, so far we have converted 457 books with a further 769 tape books to convert. This equipment is vital so that we can bring our valued CD Library into service in October in 2009. The association organised a walk on Saturday 20th June across Morecambe Bay with the Queen's Official Guide Mr Cedric Robinson 38 walkers joined over 100 other walkers and it is anticipated that over £2,000 will have been raised towards the Hear Say Library project.
