Raider Readers

Advantage! Barrow Raiders Community Foundation introduced an initiative in 2019 called Raider Readers. This involved our Advantage! staff offering our services for free in schools to read and support reading in primary schools.

The pandemic halted our progress and work on this initiative, but prior to the pandemic, we worked with schools and children in the following primary schools: Ormsgill; Victoria Academy; Cambridge; Ireleth St Peters; Dane Ghyll.

Our ambition for 2022 is to re-introduce our ‘Read with a Raider’ initiative, by offering schools who book us for coaching a free, on-off two hour session to work with young children, reading with them and acting as positive role models.

If you are school who works with Advantage! and would like to know more about this offer, please contact advantage@barrowrlfc.com
