Read Easy Bath

Brief Description of Organisation

Read Easy Bath is a voluntary group which offers confidential, free, one-to-one, reading coaching with trained volunteer coaches for adults who are unable to read or who have limited reading ability. We are affiliated with Read Easy UK, a national literacy charity.

Full Description of Organisation

Since coming together during lockdown and formally being established in December 2020, Read Easy Bath has started to deliver one-to-one coaching for adults in and around Bath learning to read. We currently have thirteen active coaching/reading pairs with ten learning in person, one remotely and two doing a mixture. Coaches and readers usually meet for two half hour sessions a week, at a mutually convenient time and place, or online. We use four local community venues, including Bath central library, Widcombe Social Club, Mead House, Southside and Southdown Methodist Church, with more in development. Coaching, from trained volunteers, is free.


We currently operate in Bath but are hoping to expand to Peasedown and Radstock.
