Trustpilot
Books do more than educate, they bring understanding, peace and connection. That’s why organisations across the UK are increasingly working with Speaking Volumes, the charity providing free Christian books to places where hope is needed most.
Meeting the needs of a changing society
As the cost of living crisis surges and mental health pressures continue to rise, communities face new challenges and many groups are looking for resources that help people navigate anxiety, loss and identity. Speaking Volumes supports:
• Schools seeking values-based and wellbeing-focused books
• Prison chaplaincies offering support programmes
• Homeless services providing emotional care
• Hospices and bereavement teams caring for families
• Community hubs and libraries building inclusive spaces
The charity sources engaging, compassionate Christian books suited for all ages - from children discovering positive values to adults searching for comfort and meaning.
Why organisations choose Speaking Volumes
• No cost: Grants make books accessible even for under-funded services.
• Trusted publishers: High-quality and theologically sound Christian titles carefully selected to suit the audiences who will be reading them.
• Impact-driven: Books stay in the community, supporting long-term wellbeing.
• Inclusive approach: Resources suitable for multi-background settings.
Expanding into Prisons & Homeless Shelters
Eden is delighted to be supporting the Speaking Volumes Annual Book Grants again this year as the charity’s latest initiative focuses on areas where resources are scarce but deeply needed. For prison chaplaincies and homeless shelters, even a small library of encouraging books can transform the atmosphere and touch hearts that feel forgotten.
