GET into READING
Every Tuesday 10.30 am – 12.00 pm
The Fountain Project, Wirral MIND
90 – 92 Chester St, Birkenhead, Wirral CH41 5DL
Group starts Tuesday 26th October 2010
Join us for a cup of tea and a book!
Get into Reading groups give you a place to relax, a chance to make new friends and a new way to share reading with others every week.
We will read a wide range of short stories, novels and poems by our greatest writers and they will all be read aloud: all you have to do is listen. You can simply drop in and sit down. Perfect for people of all ages: whether you are a reader, a non-reader or someone who would simply like some time and space to relax.
The reading group is not a course – you don’t have to sign up to anything and you don’t have to come every week and it is absolutely free.
The group is informal and friendly and there for you to enjoy.
Come along, we are here every week!
