In Iceland, Christmas Eve is all about gifting books so let's do it here:
✨ Leave a book outside on Christmas Eve for someone to find

Our @YorkArchivesUK have been involved in this exciting Outside The Box project! Take a look at the stunning images which inspired the #York street art. #HereForYou #ExploreTogether
Wow! 👀🎨
A project inspired by the archive of J.W. Knowles & Sons, a family firm of church decorators, glass painters, and stained glass restorers based in Stonegate in partnership with @theyorkbid @yorkglaziers @yorkcivictrust.
Funded by the @UkNatArchives engagement grant
Can you help our friends reach their target?
We are only 5% away from reaching our fundraising target - can you help?
Any amount you can spare is really appreciated and will go towards not only helping keep our services running but will also support @SamaritansYork and #YorkRotary club.
