Volunteers at King's Christian Bookshop in Kings Langley urge shoppers to buy their gifts from the store

Volunteers at a Kings Langley bookshop are urging shoppers to purchase their Christmas gifts in-store and help raise money for charity in the process.

King’s Christian bookshop, at Christchurch Baptist, The Nap, sells a range of different books, Christmas cards and fair-trade goods including candles and various other crafts.

Proceeds raised from sales will be donated to a number of charities, including Christian Aid.

Reverend Matthew Cooper, 45, said: “The bookshop is run on a voluntary basis and stocks a wide range of goods.

“Refreshments are also available next door, so come and support the local baptist church and help give to charity in the process.”

King’s Christian bookshop is open on Monday from 10.30am to 1pm and on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday from 10am to 12pm.

When the bookshop is closed, messages and orders can be left on 01923 267035.
