✨ It was lovely to see local businesses and organisations coming together to support the Mayor of Royston’s Charity Dinner at MITr

The evening raised funds for the Mayor’s chosen charity, Outside of the box CIC, with guests enjoying delicious food, great company and a wonderful evening hosted by Manvinder, Simran and the MITr team.

We were delighted to support the event, alongside Royston Golf Club, Barbaras flowers , Cambridge Wine Royston, Call & Cloud Phone & V**e Shop and other local businesses and residents who generously donated raffle prizes.

It’s always great to see the local community coming together to support a good cause.

🎨A huge thank you to Abby from Peach and Palette Designs🎨

We absolutely LOVE what Abby has created at Bow Books Kids!

From colourful characters and flying books to our very own shop mascot, Jolly the Turtle 🐢

Abby has brought our walls to life with her amazing creativity and imagination.

It was wonderful to see her vision take shape, and we’re so pleased that her artwork is now part of the Bow Books Kids experience for children and families visiting the shop.

✨ Thank you, Abby, for putting so much creativity, colour and personality into our space. Your artwork has made such a wonderful first impression, and we couldn’t be happier with it!

If you’re in Royston town centre, make sure you pop into Bow Books Kids and take a look for yourself!
