 We are looking for volunteers to help support this year’s Summer Reading Challenge which encourages children aged 4 to 11 to read six books during the summer holiday.
Working in the library, you will encourage children to enrol in the challenge and motivate them to continue; chatting to them about their books and giving out rewards for each book read.
Volunteers must be 13 and over, it could be a great opportunity to help out over the summer or for a young person to gain useful work experience.
