Deepest Books, renowned for celebrating the rich heritage of Dorset, Wiltshire and Somerset, is nearing its ambitious goal of raising £111,000 for local charities through the sale of the Deepest Books series. Each volume delves into the unique stories, traditions and landscapes of one of the three counties, offering readers an intimate glimpse into their cultural fabric.
This Christmas, authors Fanny Charles and Gay Pirrie-Weir invite readers to help achieve the fundraising target by purchasing a copy – do some good while at the same time bagging a bargain book which makes a perfect present for your parents, family, friends or colleagues. Deepest Dorset is long sold out*, but there are still copies of Deepest Wiltshire, published in 2019, and Deepest Somerset (2021) available.
All the proceeds of the book sales go to the beneficiary charities: Deepest Wiltshire raises funds for Swindon and Wiltshire Community Foundation, Wiltshire Air Ambulance, SSAFA and Salisbury Hospice Charity. Deepest Somerset proceeds go to Farming Community Network (Somerset), Somerset Community Foundation and Children’s Hospice South West (Somerset).
If you are wondering about the Dorset charities, Dorset Community Foundation, Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance, Weldmar Hospicecare Trust and RNLI Lyme Regis Station have already received £40,000 from the sales of Deepest Dorset.
