As many of you know we have been running a Unique
Dyslexia Crowd funding campaign these last few
weeks. A campaign which has not be going as well
as we would have liked. So far we have had 14
contributions and thank everyone for their support.
There is still 18 days to go though so still plenty of
time for people to contribute. Just click on the link to

Some of the brilliant Unique Dyslexic Get Creative participant feedback
Last year was a brilliant year for us especially with our Unique Dyslexic Get Creative Campaign
Our Unique Dyslexic Celebration of Creativity event was held on 29th October 2014. This was the first event of its kind to be held in Scotland by the first dyslexia focussed social enterprise, Dyslexia Pathways CIC constituted in the UK in 2009.
I thought I would share some of the great feedback we received from people who attended.
