A new Shared Reading opportunity from our friends at the Derby Book Festival

✨ Join our community of Shared Reading volunteers✨
Love reading? Enjoy sharing ideas in a small, friendly group setting? If you can spare 3 hours per month then Shared Reading could be a perfect fit for you!
We're looking for warm, welcoming volunteers to lead our popular Shared Reading groups across Derby.
No experience? No problem! We’ll give you full training and connect you with a friendly community of fellow volunteers. You’ll always work with others and it’s totally flexible to fit in around your availability.
In Shared Reading, we come together to read aloud (or simply listen) and share any ideas or feelings that emerge. Conversations often blossom into something else entirely … and that’s great! You don’t have to be ‘well read’ to take part. Shared Reading sows the seeds of connection and community.
Regular groups that meet weekly, fortnightly or monthly - face to face or online - in a variety of settings. Get in touch to find out more!
💛 Make a difference
📖 Share the joy of reading
