Bishop’s Move Delivers Over 1,000 Books to St Bernard’s First School in Gibraltar

Children’s books may not be the first thing you associate with a removals and storage company — but when St Bernard’s First School needed help getting over 1,000 donated books from the UK to Gibraltar, Bishop’s Move stepped in.

As part of the school’s fundraising efforts to update their library, the team had sourced a fantastic collection of titles for pupils ranging from Reception to Year 3. But shipping them from Worthing, Sussex, to the Rock was proving a challenge.

That’s when Bishop’s Move got involved. Our Crawley branch collected the books in the UK, and our International removals team worked closely with Bishop’s Move Gibraltar to organise their safe delivery — completely free of charge.

Richard Smith, Branch Manager of Bishop’s Move Gibraltar, said:

“We know how important it is to engage this young age group into reading and the love of books. As the largest, family-owned removals company based on the Rock, Bishop’s Move were more than happy to help this valued local community resource.”

The newly delivered books have now taken pride of place in the school’s library, bringing fresh stories, facts and fun to young readers.
