We work with children, young people, parents/carers, and other adults to achieve our vision that every individual is empowered through literacy. Our work is underpinned by a belief that literacy programmes lay a solid foundation for future learning and wellbeing. We are based in the diverse Greater Craigmillar community in Edinburgh with its history of community development and ongoing social and economic challenges including high levels of poverty, health inequalities and lower levels of educational attainment. In response, Craigmillar Literacy Trust provides quality opportunities and resources which otherwise are unavailable or unaffordable for children, young people, and families. Our main activities include home visiting, early communication support, Rhymetimes, Storytimes, Family Literacy Groups, young people’s groups, training for parents and carers and Bookgifting.
