Make learning an adventure for local young people – possibly volunteer once per month

The Hackney Pirates is an innovative education charity supporting young people aged 9-12 to develop the literacy, confidence and perseverance that will help them achieve both in school and the world beyond. In our unconventional learning space, a pirate ship on Kingsland High Street, young people work on reading and creative writing projects that culminate in the publication of storybooks, CDs and websites.
