Giving old books a new story.

Sometimes, making a difference starts with something very simple. 

Since 2023, Mary, Síle and Rebecca have been holding regular second-hand book sales at The Red Stables in St. Anne’s Park, Dublin. 

Their pop-up sales give pre-loved books a new home – while raising vital funds for children in hospital and their families. 

And those books have added up to something remarkable. 

Together, they have raised €26,720 for Children’s Health Foundation since 2023, including €3,345 in 2026 alone. 

Their continued commitment is a lovely reminder that generosity doesn’t always have to be one big moment. It can be something people choose to do again and again because they care. 

Mary, Síle and Rebecca, thank you for your extraordinary commitment and for continuing to turn your love of books into support for sick children and their families.
