Front Door Key

Open the door to reading, music, theatre, and wellbeing events at The Reader at Calderstones.  

Thanks to The National Lottery Heritage Fund, we are excited to invite Front Door Key holders to events and experiences from world-class theatre from companies like Shakespeare’s Globe, to family fun in the Storybarn, live music, art classes and our second annual Gravity Festival. 

Front Door Key is available to anyone who: 

• Lives in L15 (Wavertree), L19 (Garston) or L24 (Speke) and is not educated to higher education level 
• Receives PIP / DLA, Universal Credit or Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) 
• Has previously taken part in an activity with The Reader such as a Big Day Out or Family Fun Day and has been offered to join as part of a partner pathway. We will also consider those associated with new partners identified as fitting the criteria.
