to celebrate #fairtrade fortnight there's 20% off all our Divine chocolate so pop in, find a book and treat yourself to a bar or several of chocolate

We're looking for a volunteer for Sunday afternoons from 12.00pm - 4.00pm. You'd be working on the shop floor topping up and tidying stock, assisting customers and receiving donations. If you'd like to know more then pop into our shop in Dogpole, have a word with Tom or just pick up an application form.

Marking down all Christmas cards to 25% of original price - are we allowed to mention Christmas? 😬

All our packets of Christmas cards are now half price - conveniently this suits both the extremely tardy and the highly organised forward-planners. Wherever you fit, we won't judge - just buy some cards.

“Hey, great idea: if you have kids, give your partner reading vouchers next Christmas. Each voucher entitles the bearer to two hours' reading time *while the kids are awake*. It might look like a cheapskate present, but parents will appreciate that it costs more in real terms than a Lamborghini.” ― Nick Hornby, The Polysyllabic Spree
And what better place to find some book this Christmas but in our shop on Dogpole - open until 2.30pm on Christmas Eve

For those who have everything we have Oxfam Unwrapped - give the gift of clean water or farming and a chance to raise someone out of poverty

I hope you've been watching this space! We now have a lovely Christmas window brought to you by our wonderful volunteers

watch these spaces - our volunteers are preparing something wonderful for this

In this Remembrance week our lovely volunteers have created a stunning window display with home made poppies and carefully selected books. We will remember them.

we have some brilliant retro vinyl at the moment - anyone remember Madness?

May I remind you that not only do we have Christmas cards for sale, we also have diaries and some really lovely reusable, fold-up bags to carry them all home in.

This lovely book is about to go in our window - we have lots of craft books in the shop

And we have Christmas cards for sale! Suitable for people who like sending cards at Christmas. Who’s on your list? Why not send a card to that person you keep meaning to catch up with?

It’s back-to-school week so you know what that means don’t you? Yes, Christmas cards (sorry!)

We always love all your donations of books and music but at the moment we would particularly love vinyl donations at the shop.
