Programs in the U.K.
- The Right to Read program focuses on bringing
assistance to children in deprived areas. Employees dedicate an
hour of their time every week to listen to children read to help
improve their literacy and social skills. They provide feedback on
the children’s progress on a regular basis.
- Number Partners is an innovative scheme that
promotes the enjoyment of math among children in primary schools.
The program also aims to boost children’s confidence and
provides access to additional adult role models. Employees dedicate
one hour per week to playing specially designed board games with
children to help generate discussions about numbers and boost their
confidence.
