The Bookmark Reading Charity is on a mission to transform reading habits in Newcastle Under Lyme and beyond. The organisation is delivering brand new books to 29 primary schools across the country, putting quality literature directly into the hands of young pupils who need it most.

This major push aims to get more children picking up books and discovering the joy of reading. Primary schools in Newcastle Under Lyme are among those benefiting from the scheme, which focuses on boosting literacy among young pupils through access to quality literature.

For Newcastle Under Lyme families, the initiative represents a significant opportunity to encourage children to engage with reading at primary school level. Access to quality books can make all the difference in developing a lifelong love of literature and strong literacy skills.
