Welcome to World Dyslexia Day 8th October 2024

World Dyslexia Day, observed on October 8th, is dedicated to raising awareness and support for individuals with dyslexia. This day aims to educate the public about dyslexia, a common learning difference that affects reading, writing, and spelling skills.

Educational resources, including brochures, infographics, and videos, are distributed to inform and support affected individuals and their families. Fundraising efforts and donations to dyslexia-related organisations provide essential resources and services. Community engagement activities, such as reading sessions and support groups, foster inclusivity and understanding. Advocacy for inclusive practices in schools and workplaces, along with support for policies that improve services for individuals with dyslexia, are crucial components of this day. Additionally, the “Go Red for Dyslexia” campaign encourages people to wear red to show solidarity and raise awareness. By participating in World Dyslexia Day, we can create a more inclusive and supportive environment for everyone.
