Community Book Group Organiser

Do you enjoy reading books and discussing them?

Calibre Audio brings the joy of audiobooks to anyone struggling to access print. We feel passionately that a print disability or any difficulty in holding a book should not be a barrier to the pleasure and enrichment of reading. Everyone, no matter their personal social or financial circumstances, deserves to immerse themselves in a good book, and unleash the power of their imagination.

We are launching an exciting new initiative of setting up community book groups; the first of these will be based locally, at Calibre Audio's premises in Aylesbury.

We are looking for an enthusiastic person to help organise and facilitate the first of these. The group will meet once a month, for up to an hour and a half to discuss the book they have been reading. The person specification for this role includes:

  • The ability to lead the group

  • Good listening skills

  • Skills to initiate a discussion

  • Interest in reading and discussing books

  • Reading the chosen books in advance and preparing questions if needed

  • Ensure that all of the group participate in the discussion

  • Maintaining group safety and guiding the group where necessary
