Doorstep Library is a literacy charity that believes in the power of words to take children places, not just in their imagination, but in their lives. We want to see a world where all children can thrive in homes in which books are celebrated and a love of reading is embraced.

We recruit and train volunteers to go into some of the most disadvantaged areas in London to help introduce young children (0-11 years old) to the pleasure of reading. Other literacy charities get books into homes; Doorstep Library's unique home-based services means we are there in person, finding the most appropriate books for every child we visit and building a relationship with the whole family. Our projects not only improve literacy and confidence in children, but they increase family wellbeing and bonding through the joy of sharing stories.

This kind of tailored support enables us to help prepare children for school and broaden their opportunities in life.

Our projects run on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays across estates in Lambeth.

The areas include:

• Tulse Hill
• Brixton

With schools and libraries closed, and those most vulnerable families being hit the hardest, our services are #NeverMoreNeeded and the children we visit will need our support now more than ever before. 

We are continuing to recruit volunteers during this period and hope that all new volunteers will be fully trained and out on projects soon, helping those who are most in need. In the interim, we are providing our families with e-visits. We are asking volunteers to record videos of themselves reading children’s books which we share with our families through weekly newsletters.

Apply now to attend one of our monthly Information Sessions to find out if volunteering with Doorstep is the right move for you! Applicants must be 18 and over
