HUNT'S BOOKS FOR CHILDREN FUND

We want to start off by saying a big thank you to everyone who contributed to our 2021 Books For Children Fund. With your generosity, we managed to provide over 600 books to young people across Rugby - a huge feat! Following the success of last year's campaign, we would love to be able to bring more stories and smiles to school children, with the goal to raise £5000 before the end of April. Anything you can give is hugely appreciated and will go a long way to sharing the magic of storytelling with our young people.

Please see further information below: 

With customer supported donations Hunt's Bookshop will be providing FREE NEW BOOKS to local children most in need. 

Reading is essential in allowing children to increase their vocabulary, literacy skills, and independent learning. Reading has also been proven to lower stress, reduce depression, and provide a form of escapism that has become more and more important with the current climate. In families with low income, children's books are often not accessible as they could be. With our 'BOOKS FOR CHILDREN FUND' we hope to assist families in providing each child with an age appropriate new book. 

Books will be purchased at cost and donated directly to each local school and presented to children in receipt of free schools meals (or registered DS for Year 2 and under). Ensuring the books reach children that need them the most.
