Led by Polly Wright, ‘Reading for Wellbeing’ is all about sharing the pleasure of reading aloud good stories, novel extracts, and poetry, which prompt discussions about the relationship of their themes with people’s lives, and our feelings about the behaviour of main characters. Most of all, though, it’s a way of getting to know people, through a love of literature.

You won’t need to bring anything – all material is provided. Hot drinks and lunch will also be available.

Join us for the Birmingham Business Park Social Value Committee – a collaborative group focused on making a real difference across our business community.
