This Christmas at Dark Peak Books and Gifts, the team are coming together with Glossopdale Foodbank to invite customers to donate children’s books to gift to local kids who might not otherwise receive the magic of reading this Christmas. 

Melanie O'Brien, the owner of the shop commented: “Through our campaign in 2023 our generous customers and the shop donated over 100 book and I’m really pleased to be part of this campaign with the Foodbank again this year.” 

Anyone who wishes to donate to the campaign can do so in store up to and including Saturday 21st December. They’ll get 35% off the RRP of the book and Dark Peak Books will match donations received. Glossopdale Foodbank volunteers will gift wrap them and they’ll be distributed in Christmas week to families in need. 

Pop into Dark Peak Books & Gifts, 96 High Street West, to find out more or visit our website www.darkpeakbooks.co.uk.
