SEND Friendly Libraries
All of our libraries in St Helens aim to be inclusive and provide accessible services to all. Libraries provide the space and opportunity to make friends, to learn and to experience a diverse range of activities, offering something for all ages. We support people to access information and services, whether in-print or on the internet, and reading is available in a variety of accessible formats, such as large print, dyslexia-friendly, audio and digital.
We are working with parents and children to ensure libraries are SEND Friendly. Part of this work has been to create an autism social story and map for all our libraries that you can view before you visit us. Please select a library from the list below.
For more information on the local offer for children and young people with SEND visit.
