Readathon© is a sponsored reading event that aims to encourage children to read for pleasure while raising money to provide books and storytelling events for seriously ill children in hospital. So why not run a Readathon to encourage pupils (primary and secondary) to get reading? As well as earning vouchers to spend on new books, participating schools will also receive an invitation to Readathon's online summer party on 26th June to celebrate their 40th birthday with a host of best-selling authors.
