Founded in 1996, we have built strong partnerships with local Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire schools and community groups and have a thriving Volunteer workforce who dedicate half a day every week to read with children in schools. We also work with families with pre-school aged children through our Early Years programme, Learning To Love Books.
