ABC to read, was set up with the Charity Commission in 2004 (1102692). As from 1st January 2020 we became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation [1184968]. Our mission is to recruit, train and support community volunteers to provide 1:1 mentoring of primary school children throughout Berkshire. Every year the hundreds of pupils we work with, ‘discover’ the pleasure of reading, helping them to gain a crucial skill for life, both at school and beyond.
