Why

At Delight we believe it our collective responsibility to support all our children and enable them to invest in our future economy and communities.

Many children have limited life experiences that affect their ability to access education.

3 in 10 children do not own a single book

Reading and writing are essential skills for job acquisition and progression. They underpin how we engage with the world around us.

Where there is poverty there is low literacy. 27,000 children in Surrey are living in poverty. Poverty that deprives them of inspiring and enriching experiences and ultimately strips them of the tools they need to learn successfully.
