National Year of Reading 2026
We're really excited to support the National Year of Reading 2026 campaign and encourage more children and young people to delve into the world of reading while connecting with what inspires them most.
It’s time to #GoAllIn
Over the years, City Year mentors have enjoyed running countless reading-related activities in our schools, helping children discover and nurture their passions.
We strongly believe that stories, ideas and creativity belong in everyday life and we can’t wait to continue championing them throughout the year.
With a book you can go anywhere and be anything – so why not go all in?
