Whilst the book is not in effect being sold, more exchanged for a charitable donation it is still very pleasing to report that around 275 copies from our run of 300 have now found homes.

In turn, we have raised in excess of £900 for the identified local causes which is a fantastic amount and will make a difference when distributed.

Books have gone as far north as Sheffield and Manchester, to Wales and south to Cambridge and Stevenage as well as a copy to Belgium.

Today, Monday 15th May saw the first of our donations with Cheadle Library being the recipient of a copy for their reference section. We hope those who come to refer to the book find it a useful resource.

Further donations to St. Werburgh’s School and the Stoke on Trent and Stafford Archives are planned in the coming weeks.

Subscribers to this site will as normal receive an email in their inboxes detailing this post. If any of you wish to have a copy of the book and have yet to request one please do so before we run. Postage and packing is just £2.50 in addition to a donation (average is around £5)
