Today was not just the first @bookbanksuk shift for me, but for the new Manchester branch. I can’t believe how many people engaged with us about books over the course of the morning, and left with stacks to take home. 📚

A wonderful display of donated books at @norwichfoodbank in Bowthorpe for @bookbanksuk this morning with @djtaylorwriter. And plenty of people who are taking them. Books bring joy and enlightenment!

Why I feel like a literary Gareth Southgate - New Statesman. The deliciously witty, kindly and Top Cat of children’s Literature @frankcottrell_b says it. Oh, and if you want people who need good banks to own books support @bookbanksuk

Also this week: My part in the great IT outage, and trying to impress Keir Starmer.

We love the idea of #multibanks. Our experience bringing books into #foodbanks shows just how powerful these spaces can be when we use them to feed all sorts of needs - creative, imaginative as well as the fundamentals.

We are so glad to hear from Arnie McConnell, founder of the Wymondham Community Outreach Project, that Bookbanks has already had such a powerful effect on its visitors there.
