Call for volunteers to wrap and pack books!

Here at October Books we’re looking for an extra few pairs of hands to help us do some wrapping and packaging! We have several small events coming up and while the task of wrapping and packaging books is slight, we have rather a lot to get through! With all hands on deck, a single day of wrapping should do us - and who knows, we may even have fun doing it after all these months of lockdowns!

If you’re interested in helping, send us an email at info[at]octoberbooks[dot]org, or send us a message through our social media channels.

We look forward to hearing from you!


We are open:

Monday - Saturday
10am - 4pm

We are back open six days a week, with the whole store open for browsing. We will still of course be taking customer orders and you will still be able to buy food and cleaning products online through our online store. 

We are able to be open 6 days a week again because of your consideration and care whilst in the shop. Keep doing what you’re doing and leave that extra space, sanitise those hands and pull on that mask. We know you’re smiling underneath it :) 

You will see we have a QR code at the door, if you have the NHS COVID-19 app downloaded to your smart phone please scan this as you enter the shop.
