Reading for Wellbeing

Southbank Centre, Poetry Library, Level 5, Royal Festival Hall, Belvedere Road, SE1 8XX
As part of London Creativity and Wellbeing Week, The Reader Organisation is holding a special Reading for Wellbeing event at the Southbank Centre this Thursday, 20th June.
London Creativity and Wellbeing Week ran for the first time last year, putting the spotlight on the many ways in which the arts improve the health and wellbeing of people living in London. This year even more events will be running across the capital during the week - 17th-22nd June - highlighting how creativity and participating in the arts can boost wellbeing.
Reading for Wellbeing will give the chance to come and experience our unique shared reading model at the Southbank Centre. At the event you'll be able hear from our team about how our work is contributing to health and wellbeing in community settings, health centres, mental health hospitals and prisons, amongst other settings, and do lots of shared reading to experience firsthand the benefits it can provide.
Limited spaces on this event are available and can be booked via Get Into Reading London Project Manager Penny Markell: pennymarkell@thereader.org.uk or call 07967 929454.
More information can be found on the London Creativity and Wellbeing Week website.
