Community Projects
Bookfeast are passionate about encouraging everyone, no matter what their age, to enjoy reading, writing and literature.
With great support from Oxfordshire Age Concern and Oxfordshire County Libraries, in 2010 we started book groups in sheltered accommodation, day care and residential homes for older people. The groups are now run with the support of Oxfordshire Age Concern, Oxfordshire County Council, Wates Foundation and Oxfordshire County Libraries.
Most of our groups work on a drop-in basis so it’s really easy to get involved.
