Book packs prescribed for healthy literacy

Libraries have been created in a neonatal hospital ward and in an opticians practice as part of pioneering initiatives by the National Literacy Trust to place literacy at the heart of public health strategies. We have been developing tailored local solutions to increase health literacy in some of the most disadvantaged areas of the country starting from birth.
