Shannon Trust
(UK, 1117249) Browse events
YTD Raised: £1,268.91Every prisoner a reader. 'The essence of what we do is in its simplicity. Prisoners who can read teach those who can't.' Shannon Trust Trustee For most of us reading is a skill we take for granted. For thousands of people in prison, however, reading a letter from home, a job application or a newspaper is simply beyond them. 46% of prisoners have a literacy level at or below that expected at 11 years old. Prisoners teaching prisoners to read makes sense.The one-to-one peer mentored approach of the Shannon Trust Reading Plan appeals to prisoners who are reluctant to engage in classroom learning because: The Reading Plan runs in almost all prisons in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Prisoners and prison staff are supported by Shannon Trust volunteers who work together to make the Reading Plan available to non-reading prisoners. In 2014, 4,400 prisoners decided to learn to read with the Reading Plan. How your donation could help. Your donation will help to make our vision, 'every prisoner a reader', a reality. In 2015 we launched our new Reading Programme, Turning Pages. Written specifically for adults in custody, Turning Pages is made up of 5 manuals and 30 readers (emergent reading books). We provide these together with trained volunteers, Mentor training and publicity material free of charge to prisons. Thank you.
