Click Who do we help and how?
Adults with dyslexia, students, employed, unemployed, and anyone with a concern relating to dyslexia - parent, carer, grandparent, employer, GP and any other professional. Our helpline, webinars, and support groups are free. We support parents and children by offering full diagnostic assessments and an online course for parents, equipping them with knowledge and strategies to better support their child.
Each year, we support around 500 dyslexic adults across the Thames Valley and beyond.
We provide a high-quality, person focussed, friendly service. We help vulnerable people for whom undiagnosed dyslexia is usually only one of many barriers to progress; many of our clients also experience mental health issues, drug dependency, and low self-esteem. Our services are free or heavily subsidised to ensure that marginalised people can access the tailored support they need without being burdened financially.
We promote a positive attitude to dyslexia, helping the individual to work with their strengths and thereby succeed.
