Citizen Literacy’s mission is ‘Reading and Writing for Everybody’, seeing access to literacy support for adults as a matter of social justice.
Citizen Literacy provides the opportunity to practice basic literacy exercises and build your skills and confidence in your own time, at a pace that suits you.
The Citizen Literacy Taster Project is an app that that can give you a ‘taste’ of what a literacy class might be like and help you progress your literacy skills.
As you progress and gain enough confidence, the app can put you in touch with a local learning provider if you would like to progress your skills further.
The app even features voice and handwriting recognition for you to practise your written and spoken English skills and uses Artificial Intelligence to understand different accents so is suitable for everyone.
You can find out more about the app, project and upcoming events for GMB members by visiting their website here.
