📚✨ Libraries Change Lives Week ✨📚
Did you know that something as simple as reading for pleasure can have a huge impact on children’s lives?
Research highlighted by CILIP and The Reading Agency shows that when children read for enjoyment, the benefits go far beyond literacy:
🌟 Stronger learning and school success
Children who read regularly for pleasure tend to achieve better in reading and wider subjects – and reading enjoyment is even linked to higher attainment than background factors like family income. [assets.pub...ice.gov.uk]
🧠 Better confidence, imagination and knowledge
Reading builds vocabulary, improves understanding, and sparks creativity and curiosity about the world. [assets.pub...ice.gov.uk]
💬 Greater empathy and social skills
Stories help children see things from different perspectives, boosting empathy and helping them build stronger relationships. [cilip.org.uk]
💛 Improved wellbeing
Reading for pleasure is linked to better mental wellbeing and can support children to feel calmer, happier, and more connected. [readingagency.org.uk]
📖 And perhaps most importantly… reading for pleasure helps children develop a lifelong love of books.
This Libraries Change Lives Week, we’re celebrating the role libraries play in giving children free access to stories, safe welcoming spaces, and the chance to discover the joy of reading.
👉 Pop into your local library and help a child start their reading journey today.

Hi-Vis Fortnight – Help Spread the Word! 📢👀
Every hour, someone in the UK loses their sight. Currently, around 2 million individuals are living with sight loss, and projections indicate that this number could potentially double by 2050. Therefore, it’s crucial to reach out to those in the community who could benefit from the diverse content and activities offered by libraries 📚💛
As we celebrate the National Year of Reading 2026,
it’s time to Go All In! 🎉📖
Reading is known to broaden horizons, sharpen intellects, and ignite creativity ✨🧠 However, many of us are not dedicating enough time to it. Could you assist in connecting a friend or family member experiencing sight loss to the transformative power of reading through the library’s accessible resources?
Whether it’s large print books, audiobooks on CD, or our extensive selection of digital audiobooks and ebooks, everyone deserves to experience the joy of books 📖🎧💙
