The Radical Library

Reading is one of the most important and exciting tools we have. When it comes to recovery and educating ourselves, books are a beautiful way to take control of our own learning and healing. We have started The Radical Library to enable everyone to access books that might support us. This is currently U.K. based.

Anyone can borrow any book we have in our library already, or you can request any book you would like to read and we will buy it and add it to our collection for you.

To borrow a book simply email us at the hellosleec@gmail.com and say which book you would like. Please include your address as we will post it to you and include return postage so you can post it back to us for free when you are done.
