At last! A local organisation focusing on reading, literature and the power of human stories.
We believe that reading is creative, good for you and fun! To prove it, we are involved in two different projects in East Lancashire.
The first is called Get Into Reading East Lancashire. This project will introduce a new type of reading group where the emphasis is on being read to and just relaxing. To find out more about this project please contact us, or come to a group! The organisations that are linked to this project are The Reader Organisation, Lancashire County Library and Information Service and NHS East Lancashire. The current list of groups is here or join us on Facebook!
The second is called Clarets Creative. It is about preserving an archive of stories related to Burnley Football Club. Football really matters in Burnley and so do the stories of its fans. Tell your story and create something for the town to cherish! You will also be doing something important to keep yourself well. Come along to one of our workshops or volunteer to find out more. The list of workshops is here.
For a bit of fun, tell us about yourself and your reading preferences with our questionnaire. Or use the service for a friend. We will then send you a personal email with your book recommendation and will help you find ways to get it. However we are currently really busy with other projects (!) so please do not expect an immediate response.
