Support statement

Support statement from Keith Mckenzie, Project Director

Not to underestimate a dyslexic person's talent & passions through their unique qualities including strengths & attributes. At the same time, we must illuminate the barriers due to misinterpretation, intolerance and prejudice

Just like any member of society, a dyslexic person should be able to access the same opportunities and equal access to services and facilities without using their difficulties to discriminate against them
