Let's support The Bookish Type
We did it

Our queer indie bookshop has had their windows smashed & been robbed twice within the month. They need our help to get window grilles.

Nicola and Ray set up The Bookish Type and are Leeds' only queer indie bookshop. 

Based on Great George Street, their shop frontage faces the street - and they've had their windows smashed twice in December alone. 

These folk do so much to support the queer community of Leeds - they are always helping fundraise and are amazing people. It's going to cost them loads to put grilles and/or shutters up - which they really need to do and as a small business, financially this is a real problem. 

Let's ensure that they can protect the shop by chucking in a few quid to get the shop and their business protected and enable them to keep going. 

Thank you!
