Rishi Sunak and wife Akshata Murty launch new charity to improve numeracy across UK
In an unprecedented move, Chancellor Rishi Sunak and his wife, billionaire heiress Akshata Murty, have announced the launch of a groundbreaking charity aimed at significantly improving numeracy skills among children across the United Kingdom.
The newly established organization, titled “Sunak’s Numbers for Success,” will be dedicated to addressing the pressing issue of declining math literacy in British schools. According to sources close to the couple, they were compelled to take action after witnessing firsthand the devastating impact inadequate numeracy has on young minds and their future prospects.
“We are deeply concerned about the alarming decline in numeracy skills among our children,” Akshata Murty said in a statement. “As parents and passionate advocates for education, we believe it is our responsibility to make a positive difference in this critical area.”
Rishi Sunak echoed his wife’s sentiments, adding that the charity will not only focus on providing individualized support but also empower educators with innovative resources and training.
“Every child deserves an equal opportunity to thrive,” he emphasized. “Our charity aims to bridge the numeracy gap and foster a more math-literate society.”
The couple has pledged significant financial backing for the initiative, which is set to launch nationwide this autumn.
Industry insiders speculate that Sunak’s Numbers for Success might just become the most talked-about philanthropic effort in recent UK history, given the high-profile involvement of its founders.
