Name: Serena Arthur
Age: 19
Year of the Fix: 2017
Location: South Yardley, Birmingham
Campaign: To encourage young children to enjoy literacy

I want to encourage children to enjoy literacy, writing and reading in a way that seems to be becoming less important in the day of modernity and technology. 

 

I think a lot of people think that reading isn’t so important anymore, so they might not focus on that. 

 

I want to get parents and teachers to involve more literature, more poetry in their curriculum or their teaching of children so that it isn’t something that they should hide or be ashamed of. 

Sean McKee helped me with this Fix.
