A London without Stanfords is unthinkable. It's an institution, a treasure trove of dreams, and where all my adventures have started. They're also a great supporter of authors and travel writers. Please help if you can.
We love you, Stanfords! 💚🌎🗺📚
Stanfords needs your support. Like many independent businesses, we've been hit hard by the current crisis. In order to continue running, we need financial support & have set up a crowdfunding campaign with the Mayor of London’s Pay It Forward initiative:
