Books are an essential part of a child’s education and offer comfort at times of crisis. Pineapple Lane has developed a production portal that enables individuals and organisations to respond quickly and directly to provide books for children whose lives have been disrupted by conflict or natural disaster. Created in collaboration with HP Inc, Precision ProCo and Infigo, our HELP MAKE BOOKS portal is the first of its kind in the world.

Once printed, these book will be delivered into schools, libraries and other organisations around the UK and Europe by our various distribution partners, including  the British Library (Living Knowledge Network), the National Literacy Trust (with grassroots hubs around the UK), the charity School in a Bag that operates worldwide, and Welcome Bookstore 21st century in Lviv, Ukraine, who will send copies of all titles to children who live near the frontline and have no access to school.
