JDRF Giant Book Sale
- Paul Robinson (7th Aug 2010 - 17:23:11)
Marian & Paul Robinson will once again be selling off their brand new book samples at a GIANT BOOK FAIR at Hasleway Centre, Haslemere (next to Tesco\'s) on Saturday 14th August. 10.00am to 4.00pm
All monies raised will be donated to Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. At the age of five years old our grandson Jake was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes which is a chronic, life threatening condition. Jake relies on several insulin injections a day just to stay alive.
There will be many hundreds of books from 50p to 5.00 including Children\'s books, cookery, gardening, DIY, diet, health, beauty, fiction and non-fiction.
Do please come along and buy some absolute bargains whilst supporting this worthwhile cause.
Paul & Marian Robinson

Thank you to those friends from Liphook who came along to support us on Saturday and also to some new friends we met, many who have diabetics in their families.
We raised £310.00 for Juvenile Diabetes research Foundation from the books that we sold.
Thank you again.
Marian & Paul

I'd like to say a huge well done and thank-you to Paul, Marian, Lucy and Mike for their sterling effort last Saturday.
The money raised last Saturday has ment that Jake's mum has smashed her target of £1500 and the total raised currently stands at over £2,300. On 26th August, Carolyn Robinson will commence her Mont Blanc trek, walking for 9 hours a day over 4 days. We will continue to raise awareness of type 1 diabetes, where hopefully one day a cure can be found for Jake and other sufferers of the chronic condition.
Thanks again to my family for all they did in organising, setting up and selling the books, as well as to the Liphook residents who attended and purchased books on the day.
For more information on the charity, please visit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation website:

Best Wishes
Tom, Carolyn and Jake Robinson,
Diggle, Saddleworth
