Who are we?

The Schoolreaders model is very simple and cost-effective due to the high ratio of volunteers to staff. There are over 130 volunteers for each member of the office team. The charity is run by a board of Trustees and a senior management team. 

The day-to-day administration of Schoolreaders is run by a small team who are based at our offices in Bedford. They are assisted by a team of expert Trustees.

The most important people at Schoolreaders are our volunteers who give up their time to go into schools and support children's reading. Schoolreaders come from all sorts of backgrounds - the thing that unites them is their genuine passion for inspiring children with a love of reading.  Many of our volunteers have been with the scheme since it started, and say that their school visits are one of the high points of their week.
