If you have some books sitting at home that haven't been touched for years why not make a difference by donating them to raise money for your favourite charity?

A 2003 survey by Oxfam showed that 30% of respondents had, on average, more than 500 books in their homes. Only 18% said they frequently re-read books and 35% said they rarely or never picked up a book for a second time.

Does this apply to you? When did you last read that university text book on your living room shelf or in your attic?

Just think you could make a real difference to your favourite charity and the people they help by donating some books to CharityBooks. Up to 60% of sale price goes direct to the charity of your choice.

If you donate books you can decide which UK charity or charities benefit when they sell. To see a register of UK charities visit: http://www.charity-commission.gov.uk
