Building a Reading Revolution

The Reader Organisation is a charity dedicated to bringing about a Reading Revolution - we are making it possible for people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities to enjoy and engage with literature on a deep and personal level.

 

'Literature's power to heal and console outweighs its power to do damage... in the presence of great literature, it's as if a hand has reached out and taken our own. That's the hand The Reader Organisation is trying to extend' (Blake Morrison, 'The Reading Cure', Guardian)

 Get Into Reading members at the annual GIR Get-together

We run four distinct but connected programmes:

 

 

Reaching Out: Get Into Reading and Liverpool Reads

 

 

The Reader magazine and our blog

 

 

Reader Events: high quality literature events for everyone

 

 

Research and Development in reading and health
