About Dyslexia
Dyslexia is identified as a disability as defined in the Equality Act 2010. Many of the dyslexic people across the UK, whether adults or children, are unable to fulfil their potential as a large percentage of the population still do not understand what dyslexia is, the difficulties which the condition presents and do not know how best to support them.
Dyslexia is not an obvious difficulty; it is hidden. As a result, dyslexia people have to overcome numerous barriers to make a full contribution to society.
