Listening Books is for people of all ages who find that their illness, mental health condition, disability or learning difficulty impacts on their ability to read print or hold a book.
If you are unsure whether your loved one qualifies for our service, please contact our membership team at support@listening-books.org.uk or on 020 7234 0522.
At just £20 for a year’s online membership, you can give that special someone access to our vast collection of audiobooks, available 24 hours a day. Members can download and listen to books on the go using the Libby app, or stream them online through our website.
At no additional cost, our members also receive access to thousands of newspapers and magazines from all over the world through our partner service PressReader.
If you are worried that the technological side of things might be too much for your friend or relative, but you know they’d love the books, then we can help as much as they need! We are happy to talk them through setting up the app over the phone.
Alternatively, our postal service is perfect for those who are less internet savvy. For £35 per year, your giftee can choose their own books from our MP3 CD collection, or, if they are unable to pick their own titles, our experienced and friendly membership team can choose some based on your loved one's interests. We send out four at a time directly to them, and when they have finished they return them using the freepost envelope provided. There are no late fees, and they can borrow as many books as they like throughout the year.
If you would prefer to apply for a Gift Membership via telephone, email or post, please contact our friendly membership team at support@listening-books.org.uk or on 020 7234 0522. Let us know what type of membership you would like (online, postal or combined) and we'll talk you through the rest of the process!
My daughter paid for my membership and it was the greatest present she could have given me! I never believed that I could enjoy an audiobook in the same way as traditionally reading, but Listening Books has reawakened my love for books. I’ve listened to at least 50 books in just the past 8 months and I have barely scratched the surface of the titles in my wish list. You've brought happiness back into my life!
