Reading Friends
Reading Friends brings people together to read, share stories and have fun.
What is reading friends?
Delivered in partnership with the Reading Agency, Reading Friends brings people together to read, share stories, meet new friends and have fun. We use reading – whether books, magazines, newspapers, or anything else – to start everyone chatting.
