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.

Iona awarded for work with inmates

"This is a place that [inmates] can come, that will be safe, where they will be respected and where we do have something to offer them."

Improving literacy and numeracy at CatholicCare Tasmania

"We've seen huge benefit in CatholicCare. I think any organisation that has the opportunity to work with 26Ten, it's a fantastic opportunity to support their organisation and ultimately the clients that we are all working to support."

Acknowledgement of Country

26Ten recognises the deep histories and cultures of the Aboriginal people of Lutruwita/Tasmania, the land’s first storytellers. We acknowledge Tasmanian Aboriginal people as the traditional and continuing custodians of the land, waters and sky. We pay respect to the Elders, past and present, who hold the memories, traditions, culture and knowledge of Country. We extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, whose Countries were never ceded.
