Our volunteers and customers tell us that the community bookshop means a great deal to them. And we need every one of you, to carry on doing what we do.
Here are some great ways to support Kett’s Books:
Buy your books from us.
We know there are lots of ways to buy books. Bookshops with a real live bookseller are the very best way, because what’s better than visiting and supporting a place dedicated to collecting and offering great books, put together by people who love what they do and are just waiting for you to come in and discover great reads for yourself? And you’ll be supporting the high street, which is good for Wymondham, and good for you.
Tell your friends.
You’ve got a friend, right? Bring them along and let them discover Kett’s Books for themselves. Even better, buy them a Friends membership for their birthday or Christmas, so they can enjoy discounts and benefits all year round.
Sign up for our emails.
You enjoy your visits to Kett’s Books, and we enjoy seeing you. Why don’t we keep in touch? Once a week our team writes an that features new books you might not know about, as well as news of upcoming events. Because we choose the books and write the emails ourselves, we think it’s more like a friendly hello than an email from a shop. Of course you can stop them any time. You can sign up here.
Come to our events.
We have an active events calendar, and there’s usually room for everyone. It’s a great way to get to know the people you live around, and we try very carefully to invite excellent speakers for a guaranteed great evening out. Check out our events board in the shop, keep an eye on our socials, or sign up to our newsletter, to make sure you know what’s coming next and claim your place!
Become a Friend.
The Friends of Kett’s Books are a group of customers who believe in what we’re doing as the community bookshop, and want to do a little bit more than just buy books. (Although that’s really important too!) They pay £20 for the year to become a card-carrying supporter – which means that our volunteers know immediately that Friends get what we’re doing and want to see us succeed. Friends receive 10% off almost everything in the bookshop, and sometimes they receive 20%. And a few times a year we try to offer Friends-only events.
Volunteer.
If you enjoy the time you spend at Kett’s Books and would like to find out about being part of our team, come in and get a volunteer pack, or have a look at our page on volunteering. We are a very active community working in a large building, so we have a wide range of opportunities for volunteering. If you want to open a conversation you can email volunteering[@]kettsbooks.co.uk.
