We are holding our next bookstall on: FRIDAY 24 OCTOBER 2025
at the United Church of Egham, High Street, Egham, TW20 9EX
Unfortunately even when our bookstall is not open, our usual online offering via our ebay shop is sadly currently not available; we are working hard to get this issue resolved.
We are pleased to announce that our Bookstall team were awarded the Team Volunteer Award at the Runnymede & Spelthorne Volunteer Awards 2025.
How to donate books:
- small donations of books (max 4 bags/boxes per person) can be brought to the Church on one of our bookstall dates
- for larger donations, we will do our best to help, but please contact us first to confirm: uce.fundraise@gmail.com
OPENING TIMES: 9 AM – 6 PM (on the following FRIDAYS only)

Irrespective of the amount we raise at our monthly bookstalls, we commit to donating a minimum £500 each month to one of our regular local charity partners, giving something back to the local community, who support us so well. At the end of the year, depending upon how much money we raise, we then donate any surplus funds to a number of charities, many chosen by our loyal volunteers. In 2024, for the 4th year running, we raised just over £20,000.
THANK YOU to everyone involved, whether a customer, volunteer or a charity partner, in helping keep this community venture going.
