Wild Reads 2023

Delve into a Wild Read and join our virtual book club!

Wild Reads is a partnership project between Suffolk Libraries and Suffolk Wildlife Trust to promote our connection between the natural world and the written word.

Wild Reads aims to give everyone the opportunity to enjoy the very best nature writing. The aim is to help inspire and ignite a love of nature in readers through the lenses of a wide variety of writers.

Wild Reads aims to increase wellbeing and awareness of our amazing wild spaces, through nature writing and connected events and activities. In celebrating our wild spaces, from Suffolk Wildlife Trust reserves to Suffolk Libraries’ gardens, we hope to create a community of readers, writers, and nature-lovers.

Watch this space for more inspiring 2023 titles and events coming soon!
