London
Books for Amnesty International
London, England, United Kingdom
This Hammersmith bookshop was founded by the Hammersmith branch of Amnesty International, the internationally-recognized organization dedicated to protecting human rights, in 1993. The store is run by volunteers, and every book on its shelves is donated, resulting in a continually changing inventory. The majority of the stock leans toward the fiction, literature, and non-fiction ends of the spectrum, with a popular selection of biographies. Collectors can also browse the store’s selection of collectible books and records. Proceeds from the shop go to support Amnesty International’s charitable endeavors.
Insider Tip:
The local chapter of Amnesty International holds meetings on the second Monday of each month at the Hammersmith bookstore to plan events or lend the floor to guest speakers.
