St Andrew’s and St George’s West will hold the annual rummage, which raises crucial funds for the charity each year.
Any Edinburgh residents with a love of books will attend the upcoming Christian Aid book sale, one of the biggest in the world, being held at St Andrew’s and George’s West this coming May.
Starting Saturday 13 th May, the sale will continue its 50-year streak in helping Christian Aid raise funds for its crucial work around the world. Its current projects include helping some of most vulnerable people on the planet.

Struggling families in the drought-stricken East Africa region which has already killed around 23,000 people-, will also benefit from the funds.
