    • Hi Scarlett – Thanks for your message. We have about 20 groups and it would be difficult to keep track of which group is reading which title each month but we have given email addresses for each of the groups so a better solution may be to email the group facilitator for the group you are interested in and ask what they are reading. If you want a rough idea each month of who is reading what, I may be able to assist if you email me direct at todell@lambeth.gov.uk. Best wishes. Tim
