World Book Day Read-A-Long Stream!

World Book Day Read-A-Long Stream! · 4 March 2021
Imagine if you couldn't read. For thousands of men and women in prison, this is the reality. Nearly 50% of people in prison have a literacy level at or below what's needed for successful employment; many can't read at all. Not being able to read in prison reduces access to education, training and rehabilitation programmes, and on release reduces the chances of a different life. Shannon Trust is breaking the cycle of non-reading supporting thousands of prisoners each year to unlock the power of reading with the help of a prisoner mentor.
