Queens Park Rangers' study support centre was one of the
10 football clubs who received a grant from Reading The Game
to run a RIF project
in 2002.
QPR initially ran a RIF project with 60 Year 6 children over
three terms. A family literacy day, similar to that run with
Brentford took place
in 2003. In 2002 QPR held a special event for children from
Kensington & Chelsea schools who were part of a borough-wide
RIF project. Go to K&C day for
more details. The club has been successful in raising extra
funds for their RIF project, and by July 2004 had provided
over 1,600 books to nearly 600 pupils.

QPR has also run a Kick

club coaches have received training from RTG in literacy
activities.
In the last year, through Kick into Reading, QPR has brought the benefits of storytelling to over 500 children from local schools.
