Overview

About St Helens Book Stop

We are a charitable community benefit society which has been set up in order to open an independent bookshop in the heart of St Helens – a shop that will offer something for everyone and will become a community destination in its own right.

Having successfully completed a community share issue, which closed on 6 January 2021, and which raised £45,000, our bookshop will be owned by the community, run by the community and exist for the benefit of the community. We have more than 300 shareholders and we were overwhelmed by the level of support we received from individuals, voluntary organisations, the public sector and local businesses – the town really came together to help make this happen.
Our beautiful store will boast an array of books, cards, stationery and more. We will have a coffee shop run by local business MoMo's which will serve a variety of hot and cold drinks as well as sweet treats.
Our aim is to bring back a love of reading and a sense of community pride to St. Helens, something we can not wait to do. We hope to be able to run book clubs, parent and toddler events, story times and so much more.
Whilst our physical shop is still under construction, you can follow the link below to buy from Bookshop.org and support us through commision.
