Come join us for a fun Bank Holiday book swap – bring a book, take a book, and enjoy swapping stories with fellow book lovers!

Monday 25th August, from 4pm.

Join us at The Red Lion, 41 Hoxton Street London N1 6NH, for a fun day of swapping your old books for new treasures! Bring your gently used books and trade them with fellow book lovers. Whether you’re into fiction, non-fiction, mystery, or romance, there’s something for everyone. Don’t miss this chance to refresh your book collection and discover new stories. It’s a relaxed, feel-good way to spend the bank holiday afternoon. No need to overthink it – just turn up with a book and a smile.

Bring a book, donate £5 to Coach Core, take as many as you like home (within reason!). Please support the pub by buying a drink.

The event is free to attend, but we hope you will also donate to Coach Core. You can do that here.

Book your free ticket via our Eventbrite page.

About Coach Core Foundation

Coach Core Foundation wants to know that every young person can access meaningful education and employment opportunities without barriers and discrimination.

We are helping to make that become a reality by harnessing the power of sports and apprenticeships. We take 16-24 year olds who are not in education, employment or training, and place them on a sports coaching apprenticeship. There they earn a wage, whilst securing vital qualifications and learning about the world of work – setting them up for a career filled with passion and purpose.
