The @Literacy_100 #L100Charter report, is out today via our website! Specialist literacy learning for people experiencing homelessness & low literacy helps end homelessness sustainably. Only by supporting underlying difficulties can we stop the revolving door of homelessness.

Pleased to join an important moment this evening at the launch of a charter for adults with experience of homelessness, with ⁦@Literacy_100⁩ … one recommendation in its report is for research into what works for provision of adult literacy

[Kat Goodacre (She/Her) @Literacy_Kat]

Excited to be meeting my @Literacy_100 team this evening for the launch of our #L100Charter containing our recommendations for homelessness services and policy makers regarding effective literacy provision for people experiencing homelessness.

@Katie_Jones2 Yeah, mine is coming from Zotero and was on my list of things to do today… along with trying to work out how to format it. I stopped using the template because I couldn’t work out how to edit it properly. But now I need to make a new one…

[Kat Goodacre (She/Her) @Literacy_Kat]

@Katie_Jones2 Ditto! Also, fun side-I got another day… and my laptop has decided today is the day it dies. 🫣

Thank you @DandA_inclusion for having me speak to your wonderful team today about how PIE and trauma-informed approaches can be used to support and inspire our work with adult learners. Your organisation gives me hope! #inclusion #psychologicallyinformed #adultlearning

Great day @citylit @Literacy_100 talking about steps towards improving literacy of those moving off the streets. Great to hear some real life experiences and also talking about being trauma informed and #pie in teaching environments. Great work in London that needs to come North!

[Kat Goodacre (She/Her) @Literacy_Kat]

@EmmaJSumner @Literacy_100 @citylit Oh yes, still going! Preparing for upgrade at the moment. Only 6 more years. 😉😂 Hope you’re well! 🙂
