Through your raising awareness of dyslexia you've made a huge difference to my son's life. After 8 years of teachers telling me "he'll be right" and "no need to worry" your ad in the school newsletter grabbed my attention. My son has now been diagnosed with dyslexia and has commenced intense intervention programs including qualifying for support sessions at school and privately. He'll be so much better prepared for High School next year. But most importantly his self esteem has sky rocketed. He's not dumb after all.”
