Gutter Dalkey 📚🍀📚

It's that time of year where the Christmas shopping madness starts. Unsure what to get your child? Check out the books on our Santa list! 🎅🎄

Book ownership for children and young people aged 8 to 18 is at its lowest in a decade. This Christmas, help us change that. Your gift could provide a child with their first book, unlocking a new world of hope and imagination. Find out more here: literacytrust.org.uk/support-us/fun…
