Thanks @LizIthird @kinglibheritage for a great evening at New Malden Library with readers & @thereaderorg volunteers, hearing about the power of reading #poetry aloud. Lovely to see your new anthology out and to see people new to #SharedReading enjoying it too! #LibrariesWeek
So powerful to hear from Gary, Foysal and Dennis @Literacy_100 event how lack of #literacy contributed to their #homelessness and the right support helped them out of it. Fab to have a preview of #L100Charter including the recommendation for #SharedReading to be made available
Great to be part of @Literacy_100 work bringing together organisations in homelessness, adult education, reading and literacy to identify what's needed to improve literacy for adults as part of their pathway out of #homelessness - look forward to the Charter launch on Thursday!
