The Big Book Challenge

The Children's Trust is launching a special reading challenge for young bookworms everywhere! Join our challenge, by reading as many books as you can in a given timeframe and ask friends and family to sponsor you! No matter how old, everyone loves a good story. It’s a great opportunity for all the family to get involved. The children at the Trust will be joining in too with storytelling evenings and activities. 

Dame Jacqueline Wilson, award-winning children’s author who is supporting the special challenge, said: “I've been a bookworm since I was six years old. Books delight, entertain and inform - they're the most magical way of enriching our lives. It’s also great fun discovering other worlds and meeting wonderful characters within the pages of a book. I hope children will really enjoy taking part in this challenge – and that a lot of money is raised to support the work of The Children’s Trust."

Every penny raised through the Big Book Challenge will make a positive difference to the lives of the children and families that The Children's Trust supports. We will give you a certificate for taking part and if you raise over £50 in sponsorship money you will also receive a FREE copy of 'The Bestest Ever Bear' book.
