National Storytelling Week
Celebrate National Storytelling Week from the 30th January to 6th February.
“Storytelling can be found enriching lives everywhere. The sharing between teller and listener empowers, feeding the imagination from one generation to the next.”- Society for Storytelling.
What is National Storytelling Week?
Once upon a time, storytelling was a way to pass the time. Now, it's an excellent way to entertain and teach each other new ideas. This is why National Storytelling Week is celebrated annually by all ages who read the likes of folktales, fairytales, love stories and more. The possibilities of genres are endless!
Storytelling is a powerful tool that allows us to share stories that inspire and teach others.

How is National Storytelling Week celebrated?
National Storytelling Week is celebrated for a full week in February and takes places in all sorts of places, including schools, hospitals and care homes. Stories are chosen and are told in a magical way between the teller and the listener. It's a fantastic way for people to share their own story, or even invent something entirely new (and endlessly entertaining).
Finding the time to read with children can often be difficult, especially with the increase in technology. However, story time is an important part of a child’s life.
