An exciting opportunity to be involved in the development of a growing adult literacy charity as it expands across London
One in 20 adults in the UK has never learnt to read at all, but it is never too late to learn. Read Easy UK is a volunteer organisation that delivers one-to-one reading coaching to adults aged from 18-88 through a network of affiliated, locally run volunteer groups.
With its free, flexible, confidential approach, Read Easy encourages many people who are too embarrassed to join a class to come forward for one-to-one support. Each new reader is provided with their own personal Reading Coach, so that they can learn in private and at their own pace. Learning to read transforms their lives in many other ways as well, including enabling them to support their children’s and grandchildren’s reading, and so transfers the benefits to the next generation.
There are currently 80 affiliated Read Easy groups across England, together involving more than a thousand volunteers. Read Easy UK is the registered charity and umbrella organisation which supports this network of affiliated volunteer groups and provides the structure, training and support to enable volunteers to establish groups in new areas.
As our London Regional Adviser, your aim would be to find volunteers to ‘pioneer’ four new groups in London, and then provide them and our 15 existing groups in the city, with high-quality support. Your support will ensure that they provide the same for their volunteers and new Readers. From meeting with Team Leaders to provide one to one support, to delivering presentations and training for small groups of volunteers, this is a dynamic and rewarding role.
This is a part-time (18 hours per week) home-based post requiring flexibility, some early evening working and occasional travel to visit groups.
The successful candidate will have been employed to work with volunteers for at least two years; have strong people management and interpersonal skills; excellent communication skills; and the confidence to run meetings and deliver presentations.
Applicants must live within Greater London.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
