A long-standing Cape Town charity running second-hand book and thrift shops, with proceeds supporting rural children. The Mowbray shop is a proper destination in its own right — thematically organised, well-priced books, tea while you browse — and the Retreat branch is books only. They take donations of books and goods, and there’s an online bookshop too.
