Early Learning Helpers

We are an independent charity that supports, promotes and represents public libraries. Our work is driven and led by our membership, which includes almost every library service in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Crown Dependencies.

We are the UK’s largest children’s reading charity. We get millions of children & families reading together from the earliest possible age.
