It’s #DyslexiaAwarenessWeek! This year’s theme is #What’sYourStory?' We'll be showcasing the diversity of the dyslexic community and highlighting that everyone’s experience of dyslexia is unique. 10% of the population is dyslexic, that’s over 6.7 million stories to tell.

To everyone going back to school today,

It’s okay if you’re feeling nervous. You’ve been through so much this year. Please be kind to yourself. And speak to someone you trust if you need help.

Thousands of others will be feeling like you are right now.

You are not alone.
