Dyslexia: did you know…?
Did you know that 1 in 10 children and adults in Scotland have dyslexia, meaning that they face each day with new challenges?
Did you know that dyslexia is not just about spelling, reading and writing – it can also cause difficulties with short-term memory, organisational and processing skills?
And did you know that children and adults with dyslexia have some of the best creative abilities, out of the box thinking and problem solving skills amongst our population?
Dyslexia Scotland Lanarkshire is hosting an information evening in the Alona Hotel, Strathclyde Park, Hamilton on Thursday 10th November 2016 at 7.30pm.
