teaching literacy in my area?

I live in Hampshire and close to the Surrey border. I would be interested in teaching literacy / reading. I have a teacher qualification and I used to tutor children in reading, writing and maths for quite a few years. I am considering taking early retirement, or working part time and am thinking about using some of my free time to help others. Any ideas about organisations that could use my help. Charity organisations, voluntary organisations, local government schemes. I would prefer to earn some money but I will consider other options. Has anyone got some pointers? Thanks!

Update:

Thank you, but I'm not mobile enough to be a ranger in a national park. I'd love to do it, though!

Update 2:

I can't believe there is no-one to take me up on this... Please try again. Thanks.

    Hello, I don't know if this is much use to you because I live in California, but I've found that the majority of public libraries here hire volunteer literacy tutors. My local library has a program that matches tutors with adults who want to learn to read and write or improve their conversation English. Ask your local schools as well; I'm sure they'd love to refer their struggling students to a credentialed teacher.
