The Queen’s Reading Room Medal - meet the reading heroes

Earlier this year, we told you that Bookbanks Founding Director, Emily Rhodes, was one of five British ‘reading heroes’ to be nominated for a new honour from the Queen for their impact on promoting books and literature.

We’re now thrilled to share this short film, with thanks to the Queen’s Reading Room, introducing Emily alongside her fellow reading heroes! As Emily says in her interview, ‘to have this moment of recognition feels like a landmark in our journey.’
