Here at the Eastern Daily Press, we are thrilled to be launching an amazing chance for local schools to win a share of £12,000 worth of brilliant new books.

2026 is the year of reading, and in partnership with Born & Read, we’re giving local schools the opportunity to improve their libraries and inspire a lifelong love of reading in every pupil.

With tokens in paper from March 7 to May 16, there’s plenty of time for your local school to win.

• Pick up your copy of the Eastern Daily Press every day.

• Collect tokens printed daily in the paper from March 7 to May 16, 2026.

• Then take them along to your local participating school.

Prizes include: • 1st place: £750 worth of books • 2nd place: £400 worth of books • Bonus draw: Any school collecting over 1,000 tokens will be entered into a draw to win one of 75 £100 book bundles.

It really is that simple.

Don’t let your school miss out on this fantastic prize pot – grab your first token and start collecting.

If your local school isn’t signed up yet, there’s still time to join in.

Email EDPschools@localiq.co.uk to register your school and start collecting.

Good luck—and get ready as it could be your tokens that win your school their share.
