Hello,

We are having a clear out and have loads of old books. Various things mostly fiction and mainstream stuff. Normally I would give to charity but they’re not accepting donations yet. Any idea what to do with them? We have a small house and need space ASAP to decorate so was considering taking them to the tip but it seems such a waste! We are in greater Manchester if anyone knows anywhere locally that could use them. Thanks!

Offer them free on fb? People could read them or make art from them. I decoupaged a book case with pages from Harry Potter.

Locally, people put out boxes in the front gardens for passers by to help themselves, or offered them on local Facebook pages.

Why didn’t I think of that?! Always putting stuff on Facebook!

Freecycle and Trash Nothing, they'll be snapped up. Never throw books!
