Who we help

Children

Children holding up books in BelfastOur inspirational reading events tap into popular culture to engage disadvantaged children in reading, writing and communication activities. Young Readers Programme and Premier League Reading Stars are two of our programmes that work in this way to support classroom teaching and strengthen the link between the school and the home.

Young people

BDB Workshop 1 - Sally with boys 2Our work with disengaged young people develops communication skills and confidence. Words for Work brings businesses and schools together to support secondary students and prepare them for both the workplace and adult life.

 

Families
