Reading Well scheme

Receive a free book collection and an invite to join three Reading Well forums per academic year

Thanks to our partnership with Gloucestershire Library Service we have received a generous amount of books to share with schools across the Stroud District: The Reading Well collections for children (7-11) and young people (13-18)

Reading Well helps children and families to understand and manage their mental health and wellbeing using helpful reading.

The books are all chosen and recommended by health experts, as well as people living with the conditions covered and their relatives and carers. The children’s collection contains 31 books and the young people’s collection contains 22 books. Both have a retail price around £240.00

We want to get these collections out of their boxes, onto book shelves, and into the hands of children and young people!

This project aims to bring like-minded people together to spread the message that helpful reading can help young people to understand and manage their health and wellbeing. The next forum is planned for mid to late June.
