Conclusion (the committee's words)
Best Start Family Hubs represent a crucial opportunity to support parents, carers and practitioners to develop good practice on reading for pleasure. Support for parents and carers must focus on the joy of reading and make it easy and attractive for them to engage with young children. (Conclusion, Paragraph 80)
