Reading Well

 

Reading Well supports people in their journey towards better mental health by making helpful books recommended by health experts easily accessible to readers of all ages.

 

The Reading Agency has worked closely with library services across England to provide unprecedented access to the carefully designed reading lists:

 

Reading Well for mental health; Reading Well for young people; and Reading Well for children. Topics explored include mindfulness and cognitive behavioural therapy; coping with grief, anxiety, depression, and stress; understanding bullies, body dysmorphia, ADHD, autism, and OCD; and much more. Books from each list will be available for borrowing and e-lending from library authorities across England - check with your local library authority for more information.

 

Reading Well for dementia recommends helpful reading for people living with dementia. There are also books on the list for family members, friends and carers. The books provide reliable information, advice and support as well as personal stories.
The booklist is targeted at people living with dementia, carers and family members, including younger children, to support them to understand the condition.
