All the money raised will go towards these charities. Generous discounts will be available to collectors who prefer to buy large numbers of books.  \n\n\n\n• The Trust has its office and bookshop in the Walmer Town Hall\, adjacent to the library. Books for the sale as well as the shop are donated by the public. The shop is open Monday to Saturday from 10:00 to 13:00.
