Shared Reading

Shared Reading is a simple, welcoming way for people to connect through stories and poems. There’s no pressure to talk or read aloud — you can just come along, listen, and enjoy the experience.

If you’d like to try Shared Reading for yourself — simply join us, see what it’s all about, and enjoy an hour of calm and connection.

Shared Reading in Doncaster is run in partnership with The Reader, who already host groups in libraries, care homes and community centres across the borough.

“For me, being part of The Reader has added a different dimension to my understandings, my appreciation and my sorrows. I can’t praise it enough. It’s given me a new stride in my step.”
— Cynthia, Reader Leader
