Are you ready for a challenge? Love a good adventure? Fabulous at finding letters? Join The Story Detectives Playful and Particular as they embark on an exciting journey through the Library collecting letters, solving clues, and creating a unique adventure story.

The Story Detectives is a lively, interactive dance adventure designed to uncover the Most Important Story. With choreography by award-winning artist Katie Green, original writing by poet Anna Selby, and dynamic music by Max Perryment, this experience is the perfect family adventure.

This relaxed workshop is for families with special educational needs, including those on the autism spectrum and takes place before we open to the public.

A dedicated sensory room will also be available for children needing a quieter and calmer space. Please note that the library opens to the public at 11.00.

If you require any other access support, please contact us on outreach@bl.uk.
