Our mission statement is simple,
There are many benefits to reading and writing which go far beyond improving literacy skills. Studies have shown that they can relax and improve our mood. They can help enhance the ability to express ourselves, build confidence and the capacity to influence.
With this in mind we promise to keep our charges low to allow customers to benefit from our services and / or fundraise for their causes. The main profit we receive is the pleasure from helping others and especially seeing their work published in a book.
