We are extremely proud to present a brand new way of getting the most out of volunteering - the Reading Activists' ideas bank!

The Reading Activists' ideas bank is the place for young people volunteering in libraries to share all of the brilliant, creative ways you are helping other people to enjoy books and reading. If you're aged 11 to 24, you can add your own ideas and get inspiration from other volunteers too.

Adding good ideas means that you can help others find fun new ways to volunteer, be part of a community, and get your ideas recognised and published on our website - great for CVs and personal statements.

UPDATE

The summer is over and the ideas bank is now stuffed with great ideas for creative reading activities. What's more, we have awarded prizes to the creators of some of our favourite ideas! Take a bow Sophia from South Gloucestershire (see photo below), Sarah H from Slough, Molly from Thrapston, and Rebecca H from Wadhurst!
