## Description

The Reading Agency is dedicated to promoting health and wellbeing through the power of reading. Their Reading Well program provides a collection of books that are recommended by health experts, individuals with personal experience of relevant conditions, and their loved ones. These books cover various topics related to health and wellbeing, helping readers gain a better understanding of and manage their own health. To access the Reading Well books, you can either receive a recommendation from a healthcare professional or visit your local library and borrow a book yourself. The program is a collaboration with Libraries Connected, ensuring that the books are easily accessible through libraries across England and Wales. Additionally, many of the titles are available as e-books and audiobooks, further expanding access to these valuable resources. The impact of Reading Well has been significant, with 2.6 million books borrowed from libraries and an impressive 91% of readers finding them helpful. The program is supported by Arts Council England, the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport, and the Welsh Government, and has garnered recognition and involvement from leading health experts. The Reading Agency's commitment to promoting health and wellbeing through reading is evidenced by their various initiatives, including their new Reading Well for teens collection and their partnership with Death Positive Libraries. With their evidence-based approach, they provide a non-stigmatized, empowering space for individuals seeking support.
