£12,500

Amnesty book sale 2009, originally uploaded by eat your greens.

I’ve been neglecting this blog, so I never posted an update on the Amnesty book sale this summer. The total take on the day was a phenomenal £11,700! Since then, we’ve received some donations and sold the Encyclopedia Britannica on e-bay, bringing the total raised to £12,500. Our highest total ever. Many thanks to everyone who gave up their time, over the five weeks leading up to the sale, to get it all together.

The leftover books, of which there were plenty, will go on sale again on Saturday 14th November at the Church of the Ascension.
