It is Dyslexia Awareness Week from Monday, 31 October to Sunday 6 November 2011

Raising Awareness
Whilst at least 10 percent of the population experience dyslexia, many of whom are unable to afford private assessment and support; other disabilities are addressed and funded through the NHS.

In order to instigate change, please raise awareness and ask the Government to help by writing or sending an email to your local MP. When writing to any MP the address to use is: House of Commons London SW1A 0AA. To find your local MP and email address, please visit the Parliament website

BACK TO WELLBEING
Saturday 16 October 12 - 4pm

Dyslexia Rooms, in conjunction with other health related companies based at Moulsham Mill, provided a ‘Back To Wellbeing’ Event in aid of The National BackCare Charity.

"The Mayor and Mayoress of Chelmsford visited Moulsham Mill and spent considerable time discussing dyslexia with both Ruth and Sue from Dyslexia Rooms.  Jackie Arnot, the Lady Mayoress expressed her awareness of the needs of individuals who experience dyslexia and the importance of our work both to children and adults."
