This an exciting community enterprise in Clevedon. For 14 years a small second-hand bookshop existed in Copse Road, Clevedon. The new shop is the original shop plus the one next door, enabling us to double the area. The shop is now owned and run by people in the Clevedon area and by others committed to our objectives.
We receive and sell good donated second-hand books, we also sell some new books. Our range of other items for sale include cards, gift vouchers, book-markers and cloth bags. Other activities have been hosted in the shop such as; literary events, story reading for children, creative writing courses, poetry reading sessions.

Your involvement thereafter, as a customer and/or volunteer in the shop or by helping to shape the business, is as much or as little as you wish. If you are local, or visiting the bookshop, drop the form/s in with the money (cash or cheque) to cover your share purchase, or there is a card machine at the shop if this is your preferred method of payment.

Report
Our shop is located on Copse Road, which is one street away from the sea front. You may find it easier to park on the sea front and then use the public footpath between the Tiffan Caf and Clarence House (private residence) to cut through to Copse Road. At the end of the path turn right by the Royal Oak public house; the bookshop is just a few steps from here.
Volunteer
Report
The Bookselling Team: Booksellers help with the day-to-day running of our shop on Copse Road, and work either a morning or afternoon shift. They accept and sort donations, price books, operate the till, and generally keep the shelves stocked and tidy. This role is ideal for someone with great people skills, who likes nothing better than to spend their time surrounded by books!
