Read for Good

Who we are

Read for Good is a national charity committed to improving the lives of children in schools and hospitals across the UK through the power of reading. We are a talented, inquisitive, supportive bunch who share a passion for making a difference in the world. Alongside our wider team of freelancers, volunteers and trustees, we thrive in a culture that encourages curiosity, collaboration and creativity. We love new ideas and the challenge of making them happen. Our distinctive branding, enthusiasm for internal and external partnership, and high professional standards mean we punch above our weight.

We pride ourselves on our charity’s impact. Whether it’s featuring on BBC One’s Children in Need appeal show, BBC Radio 4’s Charity Appeal, or hosting events for tens of thousands of children with the likes of Greg James, Bear Grylls and Michael Rosen - we always aim high and drive for results. 

We believe people benefit from working together, so our family-friendly roles are based in modern, light and plant-filled offices with free parking, just a 5-minute walk from the lovely shops and cafes in the beautiful Cotswolds market town of Nailsworth. 

Did we mention we’re mad about books?!
