Supplier of goods for the living, dead and undead in London. Due to a rather inconvenient curse, all profits go to the Ministry of Stories, a creative writing and mentoring charity for young humans. The shop acts as a bridge between the real world and the world of their imagination as the young humans who attend our programmes go through the shop's secret door and enter into the workshops of the Ministry of Stories. Co-founded by author Nick Hornby in 2010, we help young people discover their confidence, imagination and potential through the power of their writing. We develop self-respect and communication skills through innovative writing programmes and small group mentoring for children living in under-resourced communities, working in schools, and at our dedicated writing centre in east London.
