Michelle
Mum of 2 year old, Attends Curious Kids Session, Francis Crick Institute
“I would love for my daughter to have a career in STEM that’s why storytelling about DNA or pulmonology especially at souch a young age is so interesting…I didn’t get this type of exposure when I was younger, so to see my daughter getting it at the Kindle Corner Sessions is is amazing”

“We were thrilled to be able to facilitate Kindle Corner’s engaging storytelling session on the Library Piazza for Somers Town Festival 2022, which received an overwhelmingly positive response from festival-goers of all ages.
Salina’s creativity and innovation has built something truly wonderful for Camden children and the community at large, and we look forward to continuing our partnership in the future!”

Camden Councillor
“Huge congratulations to Kindle Corner for a successful year of work in Somers Town. I am indeed very proud of the work Kindle Corner has delivered for both children and parents- Kindle Corner provides early learning support and has been there to create a positive social and emotional environment for children to feel secure.”
“Camden council had the pleasure to work with Kindle Corner at a Christmas event on 16 December 2022 at Chalton Street Market in Somers Town. We were impressed by their well-organised and thoroughly planned participation at the event. Through their extensive community network and local partnership work, they helped us to promote our event and brought a very diverse crowd to the event. Their commitment to the community was hugely appreciated by all visitors. The event was very well-attended by residents and families, most of whom came through the Kindle Corner network. We look forward to continuing working collaboratively with Kindle Corner and delivering many more successful events for the community of Somers Town in the future.”

Kindle Corner is rooted in the local Somers Town community and Salina brings her experience as a primary school teacher to the workshops, engaging young and old alike, with creative activities and bringing the love of reading and stories to all.”

"The Kindle Project is testament to the power of community. The staff and volunteers that run the project are providing a regular fun space for parents and carers to engage in their children's education. It's a great example of neighbours helping out other neighbours and improving the educational outcomes of local children. The project is run by Saline with commitment and love for her community."
Dominic Murphy
Principal Participation Officer Camden Council
“Over the past two years Kindle Corner has become a vital part of the local community in
Somers Town and the surrounding area. The support KC provides for children and their parents is ensuring that a growing number of local children, who would otherwise have struggled, can enter the school system with the language skills they need to get the most out of their education.
Kindle Corner has been an active and supportive partner for lots of projects across the area, bringing their expertise in play, story-telling and language development to an ever increasing audience.”
