Living Paintings, a Kingsclere-based charity, has started the special Christmas campaign to raise funds for the repair and restoration of audio tactile books for blind children as a tribute to Len Webb.
Len, who volunteered for the charity for 20 years, died earlier this year.
The campaign, titled ‘Len’s Repair Shop’, aims to uphold Len’s legacy by collecting funds to mend worn and damaged audio tactile books.
To donate to Len’s Repair Shop, visit livingpaintings.org.
The restoration of these books means they can continue their journey to other children.
Camilla Oldland, chief executive officer at Living Paintings, said: “Imagine your child’s favourite bedtime book – the one they ask for every night.
“Now imagine it’s one of only a handful in the world made for them.
“That’s why every repair matters. Because every child deserves a story that fits in their hands
“This Christmas campaign honours our dear friend and secures the vital future of the repair programme he was so proud of.”
Every £50 donation repairs one book and will help buy materials, tools and provide volunteer training.
In keeping with Len’s passion and dedication, this Christmas initiative seeks to ensure children continue to enjoy stories.
