Escape's take on Bookmark Reading Charity

In the UK, 7.1 million adults struggle to read and have challenges every day – at home, on the move, in the workplace, and with their friends and families. Not only is this a huge challenge for those individuals, but it has a direct impact on their children's lives too. That's where Bookmark Reading Charity come in. They aim to improve the reading skills of children in deprived areas through a 6-week volunteer-led programme. They're growing fast, and aiming to reach an additional 3000 children by 2023. It's a hugely important cause, so why not check out some of the unique roles that they're hiring?
