Amnesty International UK has opened its seventh Books for Amnesty bookshop.
The 
seventh Amnesty bookshop was opened in April in Reading by former hostage Brian 
Keenan. It is close to the university so should attract good custom.

Amnesty’s first bookshop was set up by local group volunteers in Hammersmith over
10 years ago. The campaign group now has bookshops in Bristol, Cambridge, Malvern,
Newcastle, Reading and London (in Camden and Hammersmith).
