Every Cherry Day

Celebrating Accessible Books for Every Reader!

Join the Celebration on 2nd May!

Every Cherry Day is a brand-new, national celebration of accessible and inclusive books, marking the anniversary of Every Cherry – the award-winning publishing brand dedicated to making reading accessible for ALL readers, including those with SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities).
 

On 2nd May, schools, libraries and families across the UK will come together to promote inclusive storytelling, accessible reading formats and the joy of books for everyone.

Why Every Cherry Day Matters

Millions of people struggle to access books due to learning differences, disabilities or visual impairments. At Every Cherry, we believe that everyone deserves the magic of books, no matter their reading ability.

By taking part in Every Cherry Day, you’ll:


👉 Raise awareness about accessibility in children’s books
👉 Empower all learners with inclusive reading opportunities
👉 Discover free teaching resources to support accessible learning
👉 Join a nationwide movement making books available to every child
