Did you know? 

Since 1994, £1 billion of National Lottery funding has supported books, writing and reading across the UK.

As 2026 is the Year of Reading, we’re breaking down what that support looks like: 

📖 Hundreds of books, from the Encyclopaedia of Wales to The Book of Bradford 

📖 Organisations including BookTrust and literacy_trust

📖 Major institutions such as britishlibrary, which has received nearly £20 million to date 

📖 Events of all sizes, including a weekend of storytelling in Conwy, Wales (the smallest grant to a reading event) 

Visit the link in our bio to discover more. 

Made possible thanks to National Lottery players.
