The Linen Hall Charity bookshop will soon be moving to a new home in Lombard Street, to set up shop in the building that was previously Caffè Nero, or for those a little older, the much beloved Delaney’s.
The existing site opposite Castlecourt will close on Wednesday 20th May, and we will be open for business again after the bank holiday on Tuesday 26 May in Lombard Street.
Many thanks to everyone for your continued book donations and custom, and we hope you will all enjoy the new premises.
