Reading for Life

Reading for Life is about improving life opportunities through reading for people in the most need of support.

Islington Library and Heritage Services will be working with Reading for Life to build on the success of the National Year of Reading in promoting the benefits of reading. Key target audiences include black minority ethnic children, pre-school children, white working-class boys and adult learners.

The National Literacy Trust and The Reading Agency are leading the national campaign.
