BookAid International was an important cause to Dad, representing two keen beliefs of his: the importance of learning and a commitment to international development and cooperation.

Here's what the charity have to say about their work: 'We believe that books have the power to change lives. This belief underpins everything we do. Our mission is to give people around the world who lack access to books the opportunity to read for pleasure, study and lifelong learning. We prioritise displaced people, healthcare providers, out of school learners, poorly resourced schools and marginalised people.' You can learn more about their work here: https://bookaid.org/
