Bookmark Reading Charity
City Of Westminster, London
Bookmark Reading Charity - we exist to change children's life stories through the joy of reading. In a 'normal' year, one in four children in an average class will leave primary school unable to read well. These children will struggle in school and beyond. They are at risk of becoming one of the 7 million UK adults who struggle with basic reading every day. Reading isn't just about books. It's about reading a road sign, a safety manual, a birthday card. It's understanding a job application and the prescription that could help save your life. Children from disadvantaged homes are most at risk: four in ten children on free school meals are not able to read well by the age of 11. Poor literacy can lead to limited job prospects, poor health, low self-esteem, and even reduced life expectancy. At Bookmark, we want every child to read.
