Books for Kids

Posted on 15th September 2023

We're raising money to make sure every child has a book. Please donate if you can.

The Budleigh Literary Festival is raising money to give FREE books to children.

The pandemic has highlighted more than ever the need for young people to engage in their education and learning and to be inspired. There is no greater damage to life chances than poor literacy. Reading can have both an immediate and long term impact.

Please donate here.
