Unique Updates

 

 
 
The objective of the Unique Dyslexic Project is to
support, promote and celebrate the creative talents
of dyslexic individuals across the full range of
creative spectrum
 
We invite anyone who is dyslexic, or thinks they are
dyslexic, to join the project and share their creative
ideas here including:
 
 
actors, animators, sculptures, artists, comedians,
chefs, dancers, dreamers, engineers, entrepreneurs,
games designers, improvisers, information
technology geeks, inventors, film makers, musicians,
photographers, poets,, song writers, story tellers,
writers and visionaries.
 
You do not have to be diagnosed as dyslexic and we
welcome dyspraxic, dyscalculic, AD(H)D and
Aspergers) individuals to share their creative talents
on the Unique Dyslexic site also.
 
You are invited to join our Facebook page:

Dyslexia Pathways CIC and our Unique Dyslexic
Project actively support and promote the social
model of dyslexia and disability.
 
We would argue that dyslexia is an experience
that arises out of natural human diversity on
the one hand and a world on the other where
the early learning of literacy, and good personal
organisation and working memory is mistakenly
used as a marker of ‘intelligence’. The problem
 here is seeing difference incorrectly as ‘deficit’.
 
We believe that dyslexia is not a disability, that it is a
difference that reflects the diversity inherent within
humanity.
 
Our Unique Dyslexic web site will be launched
within the next two weeks
