Advocacy and Awareness

Our Programs >> Advocacy and Awareness

Reading is one of the most powerful — and cost-effective — tools for mental health.

We’re on a mission to make reading part of the national conversation on wellbeing.

Through book drives, speeches, public libraries, and awareness campaigns, we’re showing that stories aren’t just entertainment — they’re prevention.

No prescriptions. No waitlists. Just real change, one book at a time.

Back reading. Back better mental health. Join the movement.

Our National Reading Event

Take on our 5th annual Reading Challenge

You’ve heard of physical challenges and fundraising but we are on a mission to have an all inclusive reading event to support mental health and bibliotherapy right across the country!

When you take on the Readathon you don’t just support the mental health of Australian’s you support your team build, kickstart or re-start the life changing habit of reading.

Online Community

Brothers and Books

Join a growing community of everyday people using books to get better — one page at a time. Book recs, mental clarity, and real connection. No fluff, just the good stuff.

Because books change lives — and so do communities built around them.

Brothers and Books is our online social media, we share powerful reads, personal stories, and practical ways to improve your mindset, focus, and wellbeing.

Studies and Petitions

Help us get government to promote reading even more!

Our national petitions and surveys are building the case for one of the most overlooked tools in mental health: reading.

By taking part, you’re not just promoting bibliotherapy — you’re helping prove its impact and push for more government support to make reading a national habit.

Help the data. Back the movement. Let’s get Australia reading.
