Children join our weekly afterschool program, either online or at our Pirate themed space in Hackney to practise their reading and writing. By welcoming them into our joyful spaces, publishing their work in the real world, and celebrating everything they do, we develop their literacy, confidence and perseverance.

Sessions run every weekday from 3:45 to 6:45 p.m. (in Hackney) or 3:45 to 6:15 p.m. (online), and you will have the flexibility to select which sessions you would like to attend.
No experience is required to become a volunteer – just a desire to help children develop their reading and writing skills! Full training is provided.
All we ask is that you:
-
Are aged 16+
-
Must be a UK resident
