The private company Restore Trust is now circulating a fundraising email asking for 'donations' & claiming that only 15,887 National Trust members voted against their Quick Vote resolution this year. This is not true. *69,715 members voted against it and it was defeated.* Pls RT

So powerful to hear from Gary, Foysal and Dennis @Literacy_100 event how lack of #literacy contributed to their #homelessness and the right support helped them out of it. Fab to have a preview of #L100Charter including the recommendation for #SharedReading to be made available

Great to be part of @Literacy_100 work bringing together organisations in homelessness, adult education, reading and literacy to identify what's needed to improve literacy for adults as part of their pathway out of #homelessness - look forward to the Charter launch on Thursday!
