The Jane Austen Festival team have been on a special charity shop mission all year. To celebrate Jane Austen's 250th birthday we gifted all our Yuletide Ball attendees a special pre loved Jane Austen surprise! We've been searching the charity shops for copies of Austen or 'Austen Inspired' novels. After being carefully embossed and wrapped by our dedicated stewarding team, they were gifted to our wonderful guests at the ball. #janeaustenfestival #janeausten250 #charityshopping | Jane Austen Fest
