Read to Lead – Swansea – Tuesday 13th July

The next Read to Lead Workshop will be in Swansea on Tuesday 13th July.

This workshop will give you an introduction to The Reader Organisation's work and ethos, including a chance to experience Get Into Reading for yourself. 

It was a joy and a privilege to be there. I think it’s such a wonderful thing you’re doing – on so many levels. Very many thanks for an inspiring day.
