SEND storytimes

We are offering Storytime sessions aimed at SEND children/young people up to 14 years old in a non-judgmental setting.

The sessions are held at libraries that are closed to the public and will open specifically for these events.

Support staff and siblings are welcome. Places are limited and must be booked in advance using the links below. Please only book places for the children attending and not any accompanying adults or siblings.

Online storytimes

We have a collection of online stories, songs, poems and signed stories on our YouTube Channel. In order to comply with publisher permissions, some recordings are 'unlisted' and can't be found with a general search so be sure to browse our unlisted stories playlist.
