Our mission is to make reading free and available to all. At the Global Educational Trust we believe that the ability to read is the cornerstone of educational success and a love of reading will last a life-time yet almost 1 billion people entered the 21st Century unable to read a book or sign their own name. In the UK:
• 1 in 6 adults have issues with lite

racy
• 1 in 3 parents cannot read to their children.
• 3.87 million children do not own a single book
• 4 million children live in poverty

At the Global Educational Trust, we believe that education and literacy skills help individuals lead a happy and successful life, and needless to say, provide the opportunity for people to become leaders, pioneers and visionaries which is ultimately beneficial to us all. We aim to make reading free and available to all by distributing FREE Books into society. As a registered charity we rely on the kindness and generosity of people like you.

This week is Deafness Awareness Week.

Books are for everyone, whether they are Hardback, Paperback, E Books, Large Print, Somewhere between, Read Along, Audio book or Braille. They inspire us and take us on our adventures where we can do anything!

If you can't see the format of book you are looking for (except E Books) in any of our shops please just ask as you never know what we might have and also pop along and support your local library and ask them as they might be able to get in what you are looking for.
