The church was converted into a Christian Bookshop in the 1950s, spent many years as an SPCK shop before it finally ended up in its present form.
The shop is owned by the St Olav’s Trust, a registered charity made up of representatives from local churches. These include the Cathedral, the Baptist Church, Independent Free churches Roman Catholic and various different Church of England congregations. The ethos of the shop is that we should be open and available to all. Our stock reflects this mix as we serve the breadth of the Christian community. We are proud of the fact that in June 2014 we were named the Winner of the Independent Small Retailer of the Year by Christian Resources Together.
