Julie's story
After reaching out to Kinimathatakinta/George Town Library for help with her reading and maths, Julie can now do many things that have changed her life, such as going into a supermarket with confidence and being able to read the prices of things. Julie can now also read to her children and grandchildren and help them with their homework.

Julie's story
"The value of a 26Ten grant is that it allows Deb from TasTAFE to come into the Council to work one-on-one with employees. It's a great way to build the confidence people need to learn."

Robin's story as a volunteer
"Failure was not an option, though, as the future growth of each learner that I was offered was dependent upon me sending them away from each session with greater knowledge, confidence and belief in themselves."
