You will be dealing with the venues where Readeasy run its adult literacy programme
This role presents a wonderful opportunity to get out and about in your community, liaising with local businesses and organisations to find and arrange suitable reading venues for your group. Generally, our preferred venues are libraries or similar settings that can provide an element of confidentiality, so that Readers aren’t intimidated by having to return to classroom-like settings, but have at least one other person is in the building during reading sessions. You will be organised, proactive and enthusiastic and enjoy spreading the word about your local group to a wide range of people and organisations.
