Help Move the Book Nook
Join our crowdfunding campaign and choose from rewards designed to celebrate our community spirit: have your name on our Founders Wall, join the VIP launch party, become a Founder’s Card member, Sponsor a Shelf (with your name or dedication), or help bring the Kids’ Corner and secret garden to life. Every pledge – from a simple high‑five to a major sponsor package moves us closer to opening the doors on a bigger, brighter Book Nook.
Why this matters
Independent bookshops are more than shops, they’re where children discover reading, where conversations start, where locals meet, and where we keep our high street vibrant. With your help, we’ll create a lasting cultural space for Umina that welcomes everyone, supports local schools and creators, gives writers a place to work, and gives families a place to belong.
If you’ve ever found a favourite book, a new friend, or a quiet moment in our shop, please consider backing this campaign and sharing it with your friends. Together, we can write the next chapter for Umina Book Nook.
