The Book Club

Weekly sessions offering support with reading and writing — improving literacy skills, confidence and welcoming everyone.

About this project

Reading, writing and community

The Jersey Mencap Book Club takes place weekly in our community library and is open to all members. Sessions are led by supportive facilitators who help participants with reading and writing at their own pace.

The project is designed to be welcoming and low-pressure — there's no pressure to read aloud or to have read any particular book. What matters most is that members feel comfortable, included and supported.

✅ What members gain: Improved literacy skills, confidence, social connection and a love of reading.
