The Summer Reading Challenge is a free, fun reading programme for children aged 4–11, run every summer in public libraries. Children are encouraged to read six or more books during the summer holidays, collecting stickers and rewards along the way. This year, the Summer Reading Challenge's theme is Story Garden! To take part in the Summer Reading Challenge, just drop in to your local Warrington library to sign up

In addition to reading, LiveWire Warrington libraries are running fun-themed activity sessions throughout the summer – from summer and nature crafts to digital sessions!

The Summer Reading Challenge and activities keep kids engaged and motivated to keep reading during the school break. It's a great way to build confidence, improve reading skills, and have a lot of fun!

All sessions are drop-in, no need to book

Children must be accompanied by an adult
