Schoolreaders - reading volunteer

Do you have an hour or 2 to spare during the day each week to help a child with their reading? Our volunteers are matched with a local primary school where they listen to children read on a one to one basis and will help to develop their reading skills, their understanding and their enjoyment of reading. A Schoolreaders volunteer's time can be enough to transform a child’s reading ability, ensuring that they are able to get the most out of their education and enabling them to explore new worlds of knowledge, inspiration, creativity and fun. 

(Current locations: Skelmersdale, Ormskirk, Burscough)
