Support from Costa

We're thrilled that Costa are continuing to support the Six Book Challenge in its second year, not least by publicising the scheme at the front of the programme for the Costa Book Awards ceremony on 27 January this year.

Once again Costa are offering a fabulous national prize draw for all completers within the main target audience for the Six Book Challenge. The prize, for the winner and a guest, includes two tickets to a West End show, overnight accommodation at a London hotel, travel expenses and spending money of £150. There is also a separate prize draw for prisons and young offenders institutions - two sets of the shortlisted titles for the Costa Book Awards for the prison library. As in 2008, we leave it to the discretion of the prison involved to arrange how the offender(s) concerned will benefit as best suits their regime.

Costa are also keen to see the development of more partnerships with their stores at local level - perhaps an event for participants or Costa staff taking the Challenge themselves. So if you are running the Six Book Challenge, please contact us if you would like to be put in touch with a store near you.
