Dyslexia Week 2020 plans announced by British Dyslexia Association

Monday 21 October 2019

Hot off the heels of the hugely successful Dyslexia Awareness Week 2019, we are delighted to announce our plans for 2020.

In 2020, we will be putting aside 5-11 October to explore dyslexia creates – looking at the at the power of dyslexia to create ideas, organisations and society and the invaluable contribution this makes to the UK. We recognise however, that dyslexia also creates challenges and barriers so this theme will enable us to raise awareness of these and explore best practice in dyslexia support that empowers individuals to achieve their potential.

We will also be aligning with other dyslexia days, weeks and months around the world by taking a proactive part in Red for Dyslexia activity. This year saw buildings lighting up red as far afield as Australia and Canada for the activity, and we are delighted to give dyslexia a global voice.

More details will be announced next year and you can sign up for updates here.
