I'm showing my stripes for literacy at the National Literacy Trust's Where's Wally? Fun Run! Help me to raise funds to enable this brilliant charity to continue to boost the literacy skills and life chances of children living in the most disadvantaged areas of the UK.

About the National Literacy trust:

We are dedicated to raising literacy levels across the UK.

We work to improve the reading, writing, speaking and listening skills in the UK's most disadvantaged communities, where one in three people have low levels of literacy.

Our research shows that during the initial school closures in 2020, 3 in 5 children and young people said that reading made them feel better. 3 in 10 said that reading helped them when they feel sad because they cannot see their family and friends.

Because low literacy is intergenerational, we focus our work on families, young people and children.
