Dronfield Heritage Trust Reading Festival
Friday 25th September 2026, 6pm
Dronfield Hall Barn, High Street, Dronfield, S18 1PX
An Evening Debate: Does Reading Change Lives?
Keith Wood, writing as The Yorkshire Fenix, joins a panel of guests for an evening debate as part of the Reading Festival. The question at the heart of the discussion is a simple but powerful one: does reading change lives?
The panel will explore not only whether reading has the power to change lives, but how and why it does so. For Keith, the venue holds a special significance. Dronfield Hall Barn appears in his first novel, back when it was a working barn rather than the handsome events venue it is today.
Please keep the date free and join us for what promises to be a thoughtful and lively evening.
