Schools are being encouraged to sign up to literacy charity UK Reads free book scheme, which will provide 30,000 books to children living in disadvantaged communities who don’t have access to their own books.
UK Reads has partnered with Awesome Books – an ethical online book shop which sells new and used books, to deliver the scheme, which aims to inspire a love of reading in children that don’t have books of their own at home.
Driven by a commitment to sustainability and literacy, Awesome Books collects books destined for landfill and repurposes high-quality copies by reselling them or donating them to improve access to books.
