Help for the Literacy Volunteers


On 24th March '09, a great big cheque for £1200 was presented to the Literacy Volunteers. It was gratefully accepted by Toni Edwards who described how the money would go a long way to supporting their invaluable work.
There are 320 volunteers who work in 167 Nottinghamshire schools, helping 1200 students a week in reading and generally helping them to improve their confidence. Most of the money will be used in buying suitable books and materials to assist the volunteers in their brilliant cause.
