Gizza lift!

An appeal for help from News From Nowhere, the wonderful women's co-operative bookshop in Liverpool:

News From Nowhere’s lift has broken down and will cost £4000 to repair! This will be very hard for us to find from our regular income. The lift serves our 5-storey building and users include our tenants, elderly & disabled visitors to the 2nd floor Methodists and Liverpool Social Centre in the Basement.
We had a wonderful response to our Appeal earlier in the year – we raised £10,000 for our running costs, which has put us on a much more even keel. And the building is now fully tenanted which will help over the longer-term.
If you are one of those who supported us, THANK YOU! We don’t wish to impose on you further, but if you missed the boat or can pass this on to others, then this is your chance to support Liverpool’s Radical Bookshop.
We are looking for 40 people to loan us £100 each (anything larger or smaller also gratefully received)
This can be as an INTEREST-FREE CASH LOAN to be repaid over the next 2 years. (We can repay some, but not all, earlier.) Or as a CREDIT LOAN – to be reclaimed as books from December onwards – save now for those Xmas/Hanukkah/Solstice presents!
Many thanks from News From Nowhere Collective
96 Bold St, Liverpool, L1 4HY 0151 708 7270 nfn@newsfromnowhere.org.uk

P.S. The best support, of course, is to keep buying your books (& other goodies – world music CDs, DVDs, Cards, Calendars, Diaries, Crafts etc) from us!
