We are holding our next Charity Bookstall on: FRIDAY 21 NOVEMBER
at the United Church of Egham, High Street, Egham, TW20 9EX
Sadly, even when our Charity Bookstall is not open, our usual online offering via our ebay shop is currently not available; we are working hard to get this issue resolved.
We are pleased to announce that our Charity Bookstall team were awarded the Team Volunteer Award at the Runnymede & Spelthorne Volunteer Awards 2025, Since inception in September 2000, we have now raised over £200,000 for local charities and good causes.
How to donate books:
- Sorry, but due to a massive, recent influx of books, we have run out of room to accept any more incoming donations. If you are able to temporarily store them until after our February 2026 Charity Bookstall, it would be very much appreciated. Thank you for your understanding.
OPENING TIMES: 9 AM – 6 PM (on the following FRIDAYS only)

Irrespective of the amount we raise at our monthly Charity 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 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. Since its inception in September 2000, the Charity Bookstall has now raised over £200,000.
THANK YOU to everyone involved, whether a customer, volunteer or a charity partner, in helping keep this community venture going.
