The Queen's Reading Room has now become a charity
The Queen's Reading Room follows the success of Her Majesty's book club which launched on Instagram in January 2021 and has since amassed over 155,000 international followers.
The new charity will stage its first literary festival on 11 June at Hampton Court Palace, with speakers including Dame Judi Dench and David Olusoga.
In The Queen Consort's former role as the Duchess of Cornwall, Her Majesty worked with numerous literacy charities in the UK including the National Literacy Trust, First Story, and Coram Beanstalk. In 2011, the then Duchess became Patron of BookTrust, taking on the role from the Duke of Edinburgh.
