Thank you for visiting us! And a bigger thank you if you shop with us. Besides helping to pay the bills, your purchases keep a place of witness and fellowship on the high street, something no online service can provide, and you enable us to contribute to literature ministry overseas where people are not as financially well-off as we are here in the UK.
Please let our staff know how we can improve our service to you, and PLEASE
let them know when we do something that you are happy with!! Yes, a little encouragement goes a long way!!

We wish to connect with Christians with a genuine passion for literature mission who wish to share their enthusiasm, experience and training in a wide range of roles and activities. If you believe that you have a skill and are attracted to the mission of CLC, contact us.
We are a registered charity, a literature mission distributing Christian literature, Bibles, gifts and media throughout the UK and overseas through locally operated resource centres. In the UK CLC operates 21 bookshops and is a wholesale distributor to the retail Christian trade, including online retailers. We also serve churches and organisations.
To grow the ministry even more , we are seeking people who share the vision and mission of CLC and who are able to bring strong management and leadership capability. This could involve coordinating a team of volunteers and/or paid staff from Inverness to Canterbury and many points in between. Or it could be just you and a computer. If you have relevant business operations training and/or experience and believe you should now apply those skills into a ministry context please call and talk about your interest.
We are keen to hear from you if you are excited about the possibilities of how you might fit into our mission. If you feel that this is you, then after reading below, send an email here for more details.
Please pass this information on to anyone who may have relevant skills and interest.
We urgently need a number of suitably qualified people. Please note that most posts will require some level of personal support (from friends, family, church, etc). These roles that are not salaried do not constitute employment, though CLC can supply some funding. Please read the last section for more details.

Wholesale - openings exist for people to get involved in a variety of tasks such as order processing, customer service, goods receiving, restocking shelves and database management.

HR Assistant - The role includes maintaining and updating personnel records and documents, updating HR needs on the website, processing new starters, collecting and transmitting monthly payroll data, giving support on general HR admin tasks, supporting recruitment processes, creating and maintaining HR best practices.
