Summary
Read for Good is holding a charity collection at Stroud Tesco on 19th September. Can you volunteer to inspire children to discover a life-long love of reading?Detailed description
Bucket collections are a great way to raise awareness about the importance of reading for pleasure, being able to speak to people in your local community, and to raise funds to support children and young people in the UK.
We will be at Stroud Tesco on the Friday between 09:30am and 4:30pm, please feel free to volunteer for an hour or two during this time.
Volunteering with Read for Good is open to those aged 18+, and on the day we will be collecting both cash and card donations. Please get in touch if you'd like to help out.

We are the national reading for pleasure charity responsible for unleashing the life-changing power of books and stories in children.
We believe that reading is nothing short of life-changing – a child who chooses to read for pleasure is more likely to do well in school, have a better job and better health and wellbeing. Since 1984, we’ve been encouraging a love reading in children through our tailor made programmes in schools, hospitals and communities. Countless studies show that a love of reading at an early age changes lives, from educational outcomes to social mobility and emotional wellbeing.
We also believe that all reading should be valued, and reading for pleasure should be unassessed. So, children should be free to choose what they want to read – from books to comics and song lyrics to audiobooks.
