Im running the ASICS London 10km to raise vital funds for Action Tutoring, a national education charity dedicated to closing the attainment gap between pupils from low-income backgrounds and their more affluent peers. Due to the pandemic, the attainment gap between pupils on free school meals and their more advantaged peers is now at its highest mark in a decade and pupils living in persistent poverty are now, on average, over 22 months behind their classmates by the end of secondary school. Your donation will help provide the pupils they support with focussed tuition, delivered by trained volunteer tutors who help build their maths and English subject knowledge and confidence, opening doors for them academically and in the working world. I am fundraising for Action Tutoring to help even the academic playing field and challenge the poverty of opportunity currently in store for these brilliant and capable young people. Can you help me to help them?
