    We run Book Clubs in the school holidays to provide thousands of free books for children, to encourage an enjoyment of reading and improve literacy.

A big thank you to @WoodSt_Mission for collecting my donation from my home. 😊 It was good to know the driver had forgiven our dog from last year when she tried to nibble his hands. 😬
