The private company Restore Trust is now circulating a fundraising email asking for 'donations' & claiming that only 15,887 National Trust members voted against their Quick Vote resolution this year. This is not true. *69,715 members voted against it and it was defeated.* Pls RT

@thereaderorg Bookshelf theme “Weathering the Storm” resonates more than ever - and these lines felt helpful when hope & trust feels lost “We reap what we sow, but Nature has love over and above that justice” thereader.org.uk/what-we-do/boo…

“It brought the natural world with universal truths into our lives” - wonderful impact from work of #volunteers like Cynthia & library staff with @ace_national support for #SharedReading in @MertonLibraries @SuttonLibraries @CroydonLibs @kinglibheritage #GreenLibrariesWeek
The Reader@thereaderorg
Volunteer Cynthia leads a #SharedReading group in Kingston Library, and this #LibrariesWeekUK, we've been reflecting on our chat with her about her Reader Leader journey and the benefits of the group. Read Cynthia's story: ow.ly/myP450PTlwb

Thanks @LizIthird @kinglibheritage for a great evening at New Malden Library with readers & @thereaderorg volunteers, hearing about the power of reading #poetry aloud. Lovely to see your new anthology out and to see people new to #SharedReading enjoying it too! #LibrariesWeek

@peterkyle I’m so very sorry to read of your pain and loss - we met you & Vlas at Lou’s wedding in 2012 and it was so clear what a fun & happy partnership you had. Have been cheering you on in your political career since then and hoping that you’re ok as you share this with the world
English
It felt time to talk about the tragedies that shook my life back in 2012.
I’m a different person than before then and I wanted to explain why.
If my story gives hope to those experiencing profound grief then the pain of sharing it will be worthwhile.

So powerful to hear from Gary, Foysal and Dennis @Literacy_100 event how lack of #literacy contributed to their #homelessness and the right support helped them out of it. Fab to have a preview of #L100Charter including the recommendation for #SharedReading to be made available
English
Great to be part of @Literacy_100 work bringing together organisations in homelessness, adult education, reading and literacy to identify what's needed to improve literacy for adults as part of their pathway out of #homelessness - look forward to the Charter launch on Thursday!

@Kathy_CEO_CE So very sorry to see this. And so glad of your voice and advocacy for and alongside children in the past 10 years. Hope you and the team are ok - and our paths cross again sometime.

The sad news is out already, and the messages are rolling in, so I can only point you to this whole thread explaining what's happening 👇👇👇
And point you to my blog of personal thoughts about the economic context Children England will soon be leaving:
