Dyslexia Awareness Week 7th – 13th October
Dyslexia Awareness Week 2024 (DAW24) will take place from 7th – 13th October 2024 and this year’s theme is “What’s Your Story?” It has three key messages and one call to action:
- Every story is different – showcasing the diversity of the dyslexic community and highlighting that everyone’s experience of dyslexia is unique. 10% of the population are dyslexic – that’s over 6.7 million stories to tell.
- A strong opening sets the scene – raising awareness of the importance of early identification and intervention to ensure that every person with dyslexia can flourish.
- It’s never too late to change your story – highlighting how the British Dyslexia Association can provide support and signposting to help dyslexic people begin a new chapter.
The British Dyslexia Association has a wealth of information including free information packs which you can download to support your learners, parents and carers and colleagues:
