**The Moto in the Community Trust, the charitable arm of motorway service area provider
Moto, has raised enough funds to donate a new fiction book for 10,000 children.**

In partnership with Oxford University Press, the Trust launched the 10,000 books
for 10,000 kids campaign earlier this year.

Brian Lotts, Chairman of the Trust, said: “Moto staff have worked really hard over
the last few months fundraising to reach our target to purchase a new fiction book
for every one of our 10,000 adopted children.”
