Building
on The Reader's previous north Wales project ‘Make Friends with a Book’ we are
setting up new Shared Reading groups across 3 counties of north Wales and
looking for volunteers in Gwynedd.
Purpose:
To enable people to benefit from a quality Shared Reading experience which
seeks to improve wellbeing, build community and lessen social isolation.
Paired
with another volunteer Reader Leader, you will be responsible for delivering a
Shared Reading group on a weekly basis.
Benefits
include:
• An opportunity to become part of the
Shared Reading community and meeting new people
• Enabling other people to benefit from
Shared Reading
• Training that will enable you to
deliver Shared Reading
You
will be required to take part in our ‘Read to Lead’ training programme and
attend regular volunteer meetings. We ask you to make a regular, weekly
commitment to prepare for and lead a Shared Reading group, working with the
supervision and support of peers and staff from The Reader.
