Nottingham Building Society and Nottingham City Council announce summer collaboration for children's literacy improvement.

Allie Redmond, our Social Media and Content Manager, recently spent a morning helping our Grants for Good charity café Rumbletums to get savvy with their social!

StoryParks carries the slogan ‘A summer of imagination’, and as well as reading activities attendees will have the chance to take part in arts and crafts, music, Park Ranger sessions, nature trails and more.

A summer reading and numeracy project that was forced out of Nottingham’s parks by the coronavirus pandemic has become an online hit.

Alongside prioritising support for our members and teams, our response to coronavirus has included tripling our planned charitable donations for the first half of 2020 to £100,000.

The latest chapter in The Nottingham's Doing The Right Thing For Our Communities programme sees us link up with the National Literacy Trust. From 9th September, hot on the heels of International Literacy Day, our branches will begin collecting unused books via dedicated donation points.
