Sharing the joy of reading with everyone
With the goal of making libraries more inclusive, the HERUN project designs a comprehensive sensory reading programme for all children – including those with autism and other learning disabilities. Bringing together libraries, librarians, writers and illustrators from across Lithuania, Portugal, Slovenia and Ukraine, the project provides the training, skills and knowledge needed to create an enriching literary experience for everyone. The project will deliver 160 interactive sensory reading sessions, giving nearly 1 280 children of all abilities and backgrounds a chance to share in the joy of reading.
