An opportunity to volunteer as part of King’s Global Day of Service

Each year in March, students, staff and alumni take part in a range of volunteering activities across the world as part of King’s Global Day of Service. It’s a great way for everyone to collectively give back and live out King’s ‘ethos’ of service, making a difference in local and national communities.

Become a Reading Well Champion

Reading Well booklists help you to understand and manage your health and wellbeing using helpful reading. The books are chosen by health experts and people living with the conditions covered.

Sign up to champion these booklists so they reach the intended audience. Are you savvy on social media? Have clout amongst colleagues? Close with your community group? You will be provided with resources to share these lists amongst your networks.

  • The Reading Well list for children provides quality-assured information, stories and advice to support children’s mental health and wellbeing.
  • The Reading Well list for mental health provides information and support for managing common mental health conditions, or dealing with difficult feelings and experiences.
  • The Reading Well list for teens suggests recommended reading and digital resources to help Teens understand their feelings and boost confidence.

Upon registering for this digital volunteering opportunity, you will receive links to the booklists and be a Reading well champion.
