<p>Thanks Richard. I have never actually been to this bookshop despite living in this area for years so I definitely intend to visit soon. You're right these types of places don't survive without support </p>

<p>Maria — Thanks for the clarification. Yes, obviously better to order direct, but the website could still be helpful if you need delivery but aren’t in the shop catchment area or can’t get in to pick up.</p>

<p>Thanks Don, <br></br><br></br>I think that's a useful site in general and for those living further afield, but I checked with the All Good Bookshop about ordering through Bookshop.org and their reply was:</p>
<p><strong>"<em>It is MUCH better to order from us directly. We would only see pennies from Bookshop.org - if you want to help a shop, it's always better to go direct..</em>."</strong></p>
<p>So, if you live locally, please order direct from the All Good Bookshop - details below, website…</p>

<p>It's so good to have a friendly community bookshop in the area but these things don't survive without support. I definitely urge anyone who hasn't checked it out to visit and/or call to order books (but don't forget to collect them and pay!) or go to one of their events. So much goodwill went into ensuring that a community bookshop remained in the area when the Big Green Bookshop closed - it would be such a shame to lose it again for the sake of a few pounds here and there on Amazon.</p>

<p>It's a brilliant book shop, and actually much more than just a shop. Tim (and Simon) were fantastic when I was Chair of Chestnut School's PSA a few years ago. Very supportive, helpful and excellent people.</p>

<p>There’s another way of helping: if you order any book online through uk.bookshop.org (a webaite that acts as an antidote to Amazon and lets you order from independent bookshops across the country), you can specify All Good as your bookshop of choice. They’ll get a share of the commission form all your purchases through the site as well as the mark-up on books you order directly from them through it.</p>

<p>Support all this. </p>
<p>I'm a long standing member of the writing group (which welcomes new members and pays the shop a rent.) It supported me through to publication as it has others. </p>
<p>More about the writing group on Meetup and FB (Look for All Good Bookshop Writing Group). All genres and ambitions welcome.</p>
<p>Join the shop free newsletter to keep in touch with what is going on. Buy stuff from them. Support their events.</p>

<p>I've bought shares (£100), they entitle you to a 10% discount, doesn't take long to get your money back, be a real shame if this goes under. Tim hasn't drawn a salary for several recent months. Support this Co-op by buying your next few books from here rather than Amazon. You can tweet/email orders.</p>

<p>This is a wonderful community resource. I'd encourage anyone who cares about books to buy shares, not with a view to profiting, but to keep it going.</p>
