@BDAdyslexia Well done Justin and EEAS

What a great week to celebrate another UK first! Justin Honey-Jones is the first dual-registered paramedic and specialist dyslexia teacher in the UK. It is an amazing achievement, and this has all run alongside the East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust obtaining the BDA silver award (and on track for Gold) for dyslexia friendly practice in the workplace, and winning the BDA Inclusive Employer award in 2024.
