Click here to read the Guardian article: "The healing power of books should be taken as read: Why a forensic psychiatrist describes the Get Into Reading project as the most significant development in mental health practice in the last 10 years" by Clare Allan Some quotes from participants in a pilot 'Get into Reading' scheme: 'Relaxing, stimulating and helps with concentration' 'Challenging but relaxing' 'Listening to a story is very therapeutic' 'It's very cosy and safe. It's not like being in a classroom, you're not wrong, it's just an opinion' 'Non-threatening and the literature is challenging' 'Not at all like teaching, it's really interactive' 'Very different and good reading aloud, so unlike a teaching environment' |
