Owner of The Cosy Library Usborne Bookshop in Hadfield, Catherine Korol has been spending her time visiting local schools providing them with bundles of books with the hopes of improving children’s mental health and well being.
Catherine has been working with a number of local schools in the area to promote the love and benefits of reading, she explains:"Mental Health is incredibly important to look after and teaching children from an early age the foundations to talk about, and ask for help when needed, is so important. These packs have been put together with each age group in mind. I hope they help the children who get to use them to feel comfortable to talk about how they are feeling".
