SUMMER OF READING

The Summer of Reading is a shared programme of free partner events and resources to support families and teachers to keep children reading over the summer.

Coordinated by The Reading Agency, it brings together over 20 organisations across the reading, literacy and cultural sectors to inspire families to share the love of reading for pleasure to build skills, increase confidence, support educational attainment and improve wellbeing. All summer long, The Reading Agency will be promoting events, resources and lots of activities for children and families to get involved with. You can get involved by using #SummerOfReading, in particular on our library spotlight days on the last Monday of each month. Find out more HERE
