What to expect
Led by a trained Reader Leader, a small group gathers in Scratchley Hall to enjoy the beauty of literature together. We'll read from captivating novels, short stories, or poems aloud and pause to discuss our thoughts, feelings, and memories inspired by the readings. There's no pressure to read aloud or speak – you're welcome to simply listen and enjoy the experience.
Our aim is to create a comfortable space where everyone feels at ease to participate in the discussion.
Whether you're a literature enthusiast or simply want to listen and discuss literature in a friendly environment, 'The Reader' welcomes you with open arms.
