Each year, 1 in 4 children leave primary school unable to read well and disadvantaged children are disproportionately affected. Struggling to read can contribute to poor educational attainment, lower literacy in adulthood and has even been linked to a lower life expectancy. Bookmark Reading Charity exist to change children’s life stories through the joy of reading. We partner with schools to develop whole school reading cultures and to provide one-to-one reading support. Bookmark volunteers spend one hour a week reading stories and playing games with a child aged between 5 and 10 years old, on our secure online platform. The programme involves two 30-minute sessions a week with the same child, for six weeks. For the children who need us, we’re changing their story. If you’d like to partner with us, find out about volunteering or other ways you can support Bookmark, please get in touch on info@bookmarkreading.org.
