Back to the drawing board. #Dyslexia is not just problems with literacy. It's about creative thinking, solving problems, being entrepreneurial..and so much more. If they feel confident and supported these are the ones who can solve world problems and move humankind forward.

Great to chat with Dyslexia Champions in our online 'coffee morning' this morning. Sadly focused on lack of proactive support for neurodivergent staff within organisations- believed mostly due to lack of understanding in #HR. 😠#dyslexia #workplace #neurodiversity #legal

Sign up to our free webinar next week 'Top tips for dyslexia and technology', where we'll share all the tools and resources to help with dyslexia, examine digital barriers to avoid, and more. Sign up: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist… @BDAdyslexia @dyslexiauk @Dyslexia_Champs

When employee asks for 'reasonable adjustments' they are told 'It's not our perogative to provide this'. Why #employers need to understand it's 'winwin' when they are #neuroinclusive and provide support when needed. #mentalhealth bit.ly/3puoVwT

@samthedyslexic @BStonesPolice @policepass @DyslexiaInfoDay @DyslexiaScotlan @BDAdyslexia Yep.👍 Idea mapping can be great. 👏🏽Can be a real breakthrough for many who struggle with note-taking, memory and sequence & order. However, there can be benefits from having #training on this to help find the right style/layout for our own needs. #learning #dyslexia #workplace
