Resources

At The Richmond Project, our research shows that building confidence with numbers can transform lives, at every age and stage. Whether your child is wrestling with homework or you just want to feel better equipped to support them, you’re in the right place. This is our ever-growing library of free resources – practical, easy to use, and designed to help families across the UK build the number confidence that opens doors.

Books Count

Our book club, Books Count, is The Richmond Project’s first practical at-home initiative to help engage people with everyday numbers.

Books Count will recommend books featuring maths concepts like counting and shapes for parents and children to read each month. It will provide a monthly recommendation, presented by our founder Akshata Murty, explaining the choice of book and highlighting excerpts that are particularly useful for practising numeracy at home.

The Richmond Project has developed this concept in support of the National Year of Reading – a Department for Education initiative in collaboration with the National Literacy Trust – and because there is evidence that practising these skills via reading, an activity that many families already do, is an effective and low-stakes way to learn.
