Sign up for the Space Chase Summer Reading Challenge from Saturday 13 July.
Volunteers needed!
The Summer Reading Challenge is a UK-wide programme which aims to keep children reading during the summer break.
Research has shown that children who take part in the Summer Reading Challenge keep up their reading skills much more than those who don't.
As a Summer Reading Challenge volunteer you will:
- help prepare the Summer Reading Challenge
- help promote the Summer Reading Challenge in local schools and elsewhere
- listen to children telling you about the books they've read
- hand out rewards to children at appropriate stages of the Summer Reading Challenge
- encourage children to complete the Summer Reading Challenge
The Summer Reading Challenge 2019 will run from Saturday 13 July to Saturday 14 September. You'll need to commit at least six hours over the course of those months.
Find out how to apply on our Volunteer in a Library page or email library@plymouth.gov.uk or more information.
