1% to THE CHILDREN’S LITERACY CHARITY

I donate 1% of what I earn through my freelance copywriting work every year to this awesome charity doing awesome things to bridge the literacy gap for disadvantaged children.

I wouldn't be where I am as a copywriter or who I am as a person without the wonderful world of words I had access to from a very young age.

But not every child has the same luxury, which is why I choose to support the amazing Literacy Labs run by The Children's Literacy Charity.

“By the time they leave primary school, one in three disadvantaged children cannot read or write at the expected level for 11-year-olds.”

Donations go towards bridging the literacy gap in writing, comprehension, listening and speaking for disadvantaged children.

“We believe the earlier we support a child, the better the outcome: for every one month of our tuition, a child can make four to five months of progress.

“Over two-thirds of the children we ‘graduate’ close their literacy gap completely.”
