Go All In - National Year of Reading

Go All In - National Year of Reading 2026

The National Year of Reading 2026 is a UK-wide campaign designed to inspire more people to make reading a regular part of their lives - at home, in schools, and across our communities. Reading is the foundation of learning and success. It improves attainment, builds confidence, and supports wellbeing. But it’s also about connection: stories bring people together, spark conversations, and help us understand each other better.

Become a partner of the National Year of Reading and help us make a real impact. Here are some ways you can support:

• Host or promote reading events.
• Share book recommendations and reading challenges with families.
• Encourage volunteers to support local reading initiatives. Volunteers can also sign up with the national initiative here.
• Celebrate reading through your newsletters, social media, and networks.

You can also sign up to become a Pledge Partner here.
