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. 80% of our bookstall proceeds now go to these charities, with the balance going towards our Church Fundraising Appeal.
In 2023, we raised over £20,000, for the second year running, and donated a total of £16,125 to a variety of local charities and good causes, plus £100 of books to two local schools. THANK YOU to everyone involved, whether a customer, volunteer or a charity partner, in helping keep this community venture going.
