The Reading Room

Cornwall Mind is thrilled to announce the grand opening of The Reading Room in Bodmin! Our first book and coffee shop.

The opening of our shop will take place on Friday March 28th at 10.00 am, with the honour of being officially opened by Dr. Sarah Hughes, CEO of National Mind.

With a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, it’s more than just a place to grab a cup of coffee and a good book – it’s a community space where people can come together, connect, and talk about mental health.

Paul Reeve, CEO of Cornwall Mind said: “Cornwall Mind are really excited to announce the launch of The Reading Room. A bookshop and coffee shop that will serve top quality local coffee along with cakes and a massive selection of preloved books. Reading real books is on the rise since the pandemic and as we know, it is so good for our wellbeing and we think this is a great resource to have in the town. There will be discounts for Blue Light Card holders and the books will all be affordable. More than this though, the reading room is a place to get information, advice and guidance if you are worried about your own or someone else’s mental health.”

At The Reading Room, we believe in the power of community and the joy of sharing a good cup of coffee with friends. Your support will not only help us continue to provide a cosy space for book lovers to gather, but also allows us to give back to our local community. That’s why all profits generated from The Reading Room will directly support Cornwall Mind’s vital work throughout the county.
 
Join us at the Reading Room – where every cup of coffee and page turn directly contributes to supporting better mental health in Cornwall.
 
You’ll find our shop just under our office on Hamley Court, Dennison Road, just by the car park.
 
See you soon!
