Young Readers Programme
The Young Readers Programme (formerly Reading is Fundamental, UK) is the national programme that the National Literacy Trust uses to motivate disadvantaged children and young people to read for pleasure.
Young Readers Programme available to all schools
All schools and children's centres are now able to participate in Young Readers Programme by purchasing a resource pack. This will not affect our funded projects but allows more children to benefit.

About this project
The programme helps children and young people to acquire the skills they need to develop as a reader, from knowing how to choose a book that engages them, to where they can find books once the project is over.
