Dyslexia Awareness Week: Write to your MP?

If you weren’t already aware, i thought i’d let you know that it is the 2015 Dyslexia Awareness Week (DAW), running from 5th – 11th October in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. In Scotland it will run from 2nd to the 8th November.

The British Dyslexia Assosiation (BDA) have set the 2015 theme as ‘Making Sense of Dyslexia’

they be “…look at how much of an impact the right support and interventions now can have on the future for people with dyslexia.”

If you would like to learn more or get involved in Dyslexia Awareness Week then youi can contact them on media@bdadyslexia.org.uk or 0333 405 4555.

you can find BDA Information on events planned here.

and if you want to be added to thier DAW 2015 mailing list fill in this form.

Now we come to my main reason for posting this blog, and that is giving you a call to action, asking you to take a moment to contact your local MP and request Government to look at improving provisions for those with dyslexia. BDA have created a template letter you can use  if you dont want to write your own. click this link BDA MP_Letter_2015
