We are grateful to those who provided collection points; there were many libraries, including\u00a0\u00a0 Brereton, Burntwood, Cannock, Heath Hayes, Hednesford, Norton Canes, Penkridge and Rugeley; many of them have said they will have a collection box permanently! Other collection points were Nina Charles Beauty Salon in Cheslyn Hay and Teddies Hair Salon in Cannock.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, groups and individuals got in touch to say they would like to donate and Soroptimists arranged to go and collect books, in many cases forming contacts that will continue.<\/p>\n<p>Rotary Books4Home provides pre-loved books to children who otherwise would not own a book of their own \u2013 something that a lot of us can\u2019t imagine. With the continuing difficulties families face when managing their finances, books for the children are a luxury they cannot afford.<\/p>\n<p>When World Book Day arrives on March 7<sup>th<\/sup>, 5,404 children are going to get the best gift \u2013 a book of their own to read and keep.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to all children, parents and grandparents who have made this possible \u2013 you have done something wonderful and you have made a difference to children\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5140\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-1-300x114.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"114\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-1-300x114.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-1.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5142\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-3-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-3.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-4-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5143\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-4-1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-4-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-4-1.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5144\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-5-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-5-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-5.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5145\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-6-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-6-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/cannock-and-district\/files\/2024\/03\/Delivering-5404-books-FEb-24-6.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Photos attached: 1.Soroptimists with their cars full of books, delivering to Books4Home; <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>2, 3, 4, 5\u2013 Soroptimists and cars <\/em><\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li><em> Soroptimists [and Soroptimisters!] with Beverley Ricketts <\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5,404 \u2013 that\u2019s how many pre-loved children\u2019s books Cannock &amp; District Soroptimists have been able&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":204,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5139","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-club-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>SI Cannock&#039;s Bumper Book Delivery! | News | Blog | Events | SI Cannock and District<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Cannock and District : Blog &amp; News : SI Cannock&#039;s Bumper Book Delivery! : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Cannock and District .
