The Friends of Ninney Rise (FoNR) held a lovely ceremony on Sunday afternoon 14th May to officially open the Margaret Thorsborne Library at Ninney Rise, Bingil Bay.

Margaret Thorsborne AO has been a lifetime supporter of social justice and environmental protection. FoNR are thrilled that Margaret has generously donated her life’s reading and that the books now have a new, secure and fitting home into the future. Rescued after Cyclone Yasi, when some were lost, there are some old, rare and valuable books.
