About Chapter One Chapter One is a dynamic, growing charity with a vision of a world in which all children have the literacy skills needed to thrive. Our mission is to close the reading gap by providing children with one-to-one support at the time they need it most. We work in thirteen areas/regions of the UK and will support over 4,000 children in 2026-27.

From a school perspective, online reading volunteers provide direct, meaningful literacy support for up to 10 pupils per class.
