Books at Raynes Park Station

Passengers at Raynes Park Station are being encouraged to give unwanted books to the waiting room bookshelf.

The aim is to increase the numbers of second hand books available in the waiting room at platforms 3 and 4.  Organiser Chris Larkman is asking Raynes Park residents to help out.  He said: “Books are taken very quickly, we ask anyone wanting to discard books to let us have them for the station.  Besides offering a service recycling books, it helps give the waiting room a purpose, and deters vandalism.”

Books can be taken directly to the waiting room, or you can contact Mr Larkman on 020 8542 0612 or email: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
