I do two things in the book world:
FreeSherlock! is a small charitable trust fund dedicated to getting more people reading, watching and writing about Sherlock Holmes.
We give away a free Sherlock Holmes book to any under 18 year old in the UK who asks - just email for details. We also give small grants to schools, libraries and book clubs to buy books or to support other associated activities. We support new Sherlockian writing and theatre, and have already published a series of short stories and commissioned two theatrical productions. Demand is high with over 1,000 people benefitting since our launch.
BookLocker UK buys and sells vintage and rare First Edition books specialising in authors ranging from Fleming, Dahl, TE Lawrence, AA Milne, Christie, Twain, Dickens, Herge and of course Conan Doyle. Plus many more sold each year. I have been buying and selling vintage books since I was a school kid and the business keeps growing year on year. BookLocker also actively supports FreeSherlock!
