We are Target Who and things have been moving
at a hectic pace over the last few days.
Six Days
ago Andrew handed over a little bundle of books to Quilley School of
Engineering in Southampton that included our 2000th book! Since then the counters have kept climbing as
we strive to reach as many schools as possible before the summer break.

Both Dave
in Leeds and Andy in the West Midlands have donated themselves to a standstill,
exhausting their supply of books! Dave’s
last push involved sending books on their way to schools in Edinburgh and
Ayr! They won’t reach their final
destination until after the summer break, but they are slowly working their way
up towards Scotland.
Andrew
has been busy co-ordinating deliveries to other hubs. He’s sorted and passed on books to our man in
Sussex, Rob Carpenter and the Sussex
hub. Books are also en route to our new
Kent hub ready for deliveries to start in September. A trip to watch the Doctor Who Proms concert
also saw Andrew passing books out to other members of the Target Who Team while
there!
As at 16th July 2013. Target Who Books Delivered: 2,251. Inspired Donations: 162 |
David has
been out and about in Gloucestershire again, reaching the schools between
Cirencester and Bourton-on-the-Water.
He’s also been calling on both teachers and friends of friends to move
books around during the summer holidays.
Books have been sorted and sent to wonderful people helping distribute
in Manchester, Warrington, Wigan, St Helens and the Scottish Highlands.

We also
have a number of friends and helpers scattered around the UK all continuing to
move our books into schools near them. Thank you all. They,
along with other members of Target Who, will be distributing books to schools
we’ve yet to reach after the summer break.
We are
Target Who and slowly we are making our way to you.
