This summer we have partnered with The National Literacy Trust to support their Salford Literacy Trail.

20 BookBench sculptures will appear across Salford from 14 July – 9 September with a BookBench located at our very own Ordsall Hall. There are also benches at other SCL managed sites at Salford Museum & Art Gallery, Eccles Gateway and Swinton Gateway. The colourful benches have been co-created by local schools and artists, to help bring joy our community and inspire reading.

When you encourage a child to read, you’re not just engaging them with the magic of stories, you’re helping them learn and develop skills that will support them throughout their lives.
