We’re reaching out regarding an upcoming fundraising event in aid of Read With Me. We are an organisation that offers one to one reading time to children in Gloucestershire, twice a week, to improve their literacy skills. Currently 200,000 children leave primary school every year unable to read. This event will help us to fund the vital service that we offer to schools, building children’s confidence and allowing them to develop a skill that will greatly enhance their life chances.

Held at the wonderful Gloucester Brewery , Fox’s Kiln, West Quay, Gloucester, GL1 2LG, on Thursday 20th April from 7pm, the evening will feature live music sets from SUSAN, Huw and The Greater Good and Pumpadelic. Three bands with their own distinct style; this event offers something for everyone.

To accompany the entertainment there will be a supper available, on a pay as you feel basis. This can be washed down with some of Gloucester Brewery’s sustainably crafted beers and gins, with soft drinks available. 

There will also be a chance to win some great prizes during our raffle, with all proceeds helping to ensure every child learns to read before they reach secondary school.

Tickets are just £10 (available here). More information is available via our Facebook and the event page which can be found here. We have also created a press release to be shared, which contains some more details.

We would really appreciate it if you could share the event within your community as we are aiming to fill the brewery! Please get in touch if you have any questions, and we hope to see you there. 

Thanks so much

Linda Cohen
