Use of Ibstock's Library for Coram Beanstalk promotion materials
Coram Beanstalk is a charity aimed at promoting a love of reading in children.
Coram Beanstalk equips adults and young people to 'do reading' better with children because the more children encounter confident, capable and inspiring support with their reading – at home, in school and in life – the more they are likely to get on and stay on the path to becoming a reader. Their volunteers provide consistent support to children who have fallen behind and need more intensive or longer-term help to change their attitude to reading and build their reading skills, ability and confidence.
Ibstock has financially supported Coram Beanstalk's work in nearby Heathmere Primary School for many years. We have also regularly invited members of a parent community to become volunteers at this wonderful charity.
Over Half Term, we allowed the charity to use our library pro bono in order to film promotional videos for their new #ChooseReading campaign.
