Love Lutterworth: Discover a new love for literature with Leicestershire Shared Reading
Local residents are invited to discover a new love for reading this February as part of ‘Love Lutterworth’, a month-long celebration of arts, creativity and community spirit in the town.
On Monday 17 February from 2–3pm at Lutterworth Library, Leicestershire Shared Reading will host a free Shared Reading taster session led by a volunteer Reader Leader. The relaxed session will feature stories and poems read aloud, all specially chosen around the theme of love.
Designed for adult readers, the session offers a welcoming space to sit back, listen and enjoy literature together in a small group. No preparation or prior experience is needed - just a love of stories, poems and the joy of reading aloud.
The session is organised as part of Visit Harborough and Lutterworth Town Team’s ‘Love Lutterworth’, a busy calendar of events celebrating the town through arts and creativity, promoting local shopping and bringing the community together.
Cllr Jo Asher, Cabinet Lead for Culture, Leisure, Economy and Tourism at Harborough District Council, said: “Vibrant town centres are important to our local economy. Love Lutterworth is a great way to celebrate the creativity and community that makes Lutterworth a valued place, and everyone is invited to join in.”
The Shared Reading session is free to attend, but places are limited. Booking in advance is recommended, with drop-ins on the day subject to availability.
More information about Love Lutterworth and the full programme of events is available on the Visit Harborough District website.
