Start fundraising for Shannon Trust and transform someone’s life by giving them the chance to learn to read and do numeracy.
Your fundraising can help us achieve a future where nobody is left out of learning.
Being unable to read and do numeracy is more common than you think. In prisons, over two thirds of people struggle with reading and numeracy. 15% of people in the wider community struggle with reading, and even more struggle with numeracy.
Learning has a transformative impact on the life of the individual and those around them. It provides opportunities to engage in further education or develop key skills for the workplace, and helps break the cycle of low literacy and numeracy. In turn, this can lead to a brighter future with reduced reoffending and a better society.
From bake sales and sponsored runs, to adopting us as your charity of the year at work, there are so many ways you can get involved.
From pushing yourself to your limits, or celebrating an occasion in style, there are fundraising challenges and events for everyone. Whatever you’re doing, let us know.
We'd love to support you.
