A huge thank you to

Your support means a great deal

Whether you volunteer with us, have taken out a Friends membership, or contributed to our fundraising campaign, it means a lot to us.

Our fundraising campaign is ongoing, helping us to stage our Festival, in addition to the extremely important continuation of our schools’ literary programme.
