The PCH bookshop:

The PCH Bookshop was started by Pat Dennis as a fundraising initiative where Princess Christian Home sells good quality books at low prices to the public. The Home is grateful to have experienced volunteers who offer their time to help in the bookshop.

The PCH Bookshop is open on Tuesdays and Fridays from 09h30 to 12h00 and on Saturdays from 08h30 to 12h00.

We are continuously in need of second hand books. Donations of books are always welcome to support this cause. For more information on The PCH Bookshop, please contact reception on 012 460 2221.

How can you help?

As a non-profit organisation which does not receive any church or government subsidies, PCH continuously rely on donations from the public. We are registered for Section 18A of the Income Tax Act, which means that you will be able to deduct your donation from your income tax according to the Act.

You are welcome to bring us your second hand accessories, arts and crafts, books, clothing, electrical appliances, furniture, magazines, paper, plants, shoes and toys to name a few.

We are always in need of extra hands. If you have spare time and would like to get involved, please contact us today. We are also in need of a volunteer who can play Bingo, Skittle Ball and / or Dominoes 30 to 45 minutes per week.
