Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cornwall meets our one millionth beneficiary

8 Dec 2011

CH compressedAt a reception at Clarence House, our Patron the Duchess of Cornwall met the one millionth person supported by our work. She also met a child from a school that fundraised for us this year.

Reef Hutt from Okehampton Primary School in Devon, our one millionth beneficiary, has become a keen reader after attending inspirational reading events and being able to choose books of his own to keep.

Director Jonathan Douglas said:

We are delighted to be celebrating working with one million children and adults. This would not have been possible without the support of our funders. We would like to thank all those who have supported the National Literacy Trust to date from companies to grant-making organisations, to fundraising schools and individual donors.Read the press release
