Read Easy - Adult Literacy Scheme

Help Read Easy win the Lloyds Bank Commmunity Fund Award... VOTE NOW!!

Read Easy Axminster and Seaton has been shortlisted for a Lloyds Bank Community Fund award  and could receive a grant up to £3000.

This local group trains and supports volunteers to give reading tuition to adults who struggle with reading. Many people with reading difficulties are too embarrassed to seek help if it means joining a class so Read Easy offers an alternative by providing free, friendly, flexible, one-to-one coaching to anyone who wants to improve their skills. New readers meet with their coaches twice a week at approved local venues working in private at their own pace building reading skills, confidence and self esteem. This potentially enables them to contribute to the community through increased work and social opportunities.

This award would make a huge difference to the number of people we could support - the fund would be used to train volunteer coaches, provide free reading manuals and other resources for readers and go towards the administrative costs of running such a group.

Please vote for us - you can do this online at www.lloydsbank.com/communityfund  (type in Read Easy in the Find a Cause box and follow instructions) or text VOTE FFT to 61119 or visit a local Lloyds Bank branch.

Nutritional therapy is a complementary therapy, not an alternative medicine. It works well alongside conventional medicine. It is most relevant for individuals with long term sub optimal health, as well as those looking for support to enhance their health and wellbeing.

Practitioners consider each individual to be unique and recommend personalised nutrition and lifestyle programmes rather than a 'one size fits all' approach.
