Well its nearly Christmas / tragedy in Glasgow

Hi Blog readers

First I would like to send my condolences to the six people who died, their families and to all those affected by the tragic accident in Glasgow yesterday. Also a big thank you to all the emergency services personnel and members of the public who came to the aid of the injured.

Just the final bit of news from Dyslexia Pathways and Unique Dyslexic. We won the self starter of the week award from Startacus

The Self Starter of the Week is Stephen McCue

Why?
Sometimes being a go-getting self starter is about more than having a business and making loads of money.  Some of the best self starters are those people who go all-in to make a positive change in the world, giving their time and talents for the good of others... people like Stephen McCue.  Stephen is a dyslexic dyslexia and inclusion specialist and founder of founded Dyslexia Pathways CIC, Scotland's first dyslexia focused social enterprise.  With funding from the Big Lottery, Foundation Scotland, Fife Cultural Trust and Fife Learning Network they are providing a wide range of support to people with dyslexia and promoting dyslexia as a difference that reflects the diversity of humanity.

Finally a merry Christmas and I hope a happy or happier new year to all my blog readers and to all those involved in Unique Dyslexic.

But I would also like to remind everyone that 13 million people in the UK live in poverty a third of which are children. Many are pensioners living on their own. If you can donate to a food bank or just say high to a pensioner living alone it would make someone's Christmas a little better.

regards

Steve
