Life is Returning to Reading
Reading is a vibrant, prosperous town where 13 of the top global companies have offices, has the UK’s No1 tech cluster, where 20% of students remain after graduation and Reading University is amongst the top 1% of worldwide universities.
It has therefore been difficult and a shock to see Reading look so different over the past 12 months. We are delighted by the easing of restrictions and the safer environment as COVID-19 numbers reduce. We thank Living Reading for their excellent communication and support throughout these challenging and ever changing circumstances. The Living Reading website is up to date and provides an excellent resource for activities and businesses reopening in the area, alongside their regular email newsletter.
