The Book Fairies loved the chance to attend the TEDxNHS event in London in October, and had fun hiding books around the venue at Indigo at the O2 as well as recruiting new book fairies!

How did we help at TEDxNHS?

The team at TEDxNHS approached us to see if we would be interested in hiding books at the venue on the day – books of an interest to the medical profession. So we got to work! Not only did we source books but we also put some goodies inside every single goody bag – and there were 1,100 on the day! This meant that not only were several books found around the venue, but each and every attendee is equipped to be a book fairy where they live – spreading the love of reading and re-gifting second hand books.

So many books were found!

Over the moon that @Waterstones have given @TEDxNHS copies of Harry Potter ahead of my TED talk today! This book is such important part of Joshua’s story through NICU.

Do you have an event you’d like to be ‘book-fairied’?

We love rocking up at events and helping to spread the book fairy magic! If you have an idea you’d like to discuss with us, or even a speaking opportunity (yup, sometimes we come out of our anonymous bubble) please get in touch on bookfairyemail@gmail.com 🙂

Become a book fairy yourself!

We love that so many of the TEDxNHS attendees left to become book fairies themselves! They did this with their first pack of stickers and a book fairy guide, which we include for free in every order! Below are some ideas to get you started!
