Story

We are a small charity working in Wandsworth, supporting children's literacy from 0 to 11 years. Many families we work with live in crowded social housing, with cramped living space and limited online access. For all these reasons, COVID-19 has had a disproportionate impact on these childrens early development and later reading progress; children currently being referred for our support are struggling more than we have ever seen before. From September 2022 we are expanding our work to serve children from 0 to 11 years, building long-term supportive relationships with families. We would love your help to increase our reach and our impact. Read more about what we do and the difference we make here https://www.learn2love2read.org.uk/pages/5-facts-figures.
