please give us your feed back

Happy 5th wedding anniversary Anne love you lots and lots and lots and lots more.

Hi blog readers hope you are all well

I have been having a busy week here in Glenrothes. I sent of our application to Pilot Light which, is successful, will give us some free professional support that will enable us to move forward with out plan to set up a new dyslexia centre here in Fife.......fingers crossed here.....

On Thursday I went on a short training course on 3D printing at Acorn Enterprise which was very enjoyable....learned a lot. The potential is very star trek indeed. I didn't really know how far 3d printing had come. Amazing things being made like new bladders, titanium hip replacements, 3d printed houses etc. Pretty soon I think we will see 3d printers become as necessary to have in the home as a 2 d printer now.


Dyslexia: It’s a difference that represents diversity







Dyslexic Pathways CIC was set up to break down the barriers faced by those who are dyslexic. Dyslexia represents the diversity inherent in humanity and we want to define dyslexia by what we can do and do well. The idea behind this crowd funding campaign is to enable the 6 million dyslexics in the UK, the 66 million dyslexics in the USA and the nearly one billion dyslexics across the world to self advocate for a better deal for dyslexics everywhere, to start developing a coherent community and social movement as well as to raise awareness of a more positive profile of dyslexia.

Here is some of our ideas. No colour involved yet as I am colour blind and I think the colours from the Unique logo will be in there.

Remember the whole idea behind the cord funding is to enable dyslexics to advocate for a more positive profile of dyslexia. To show the non dyslexic world what we can do and do well.

But firstly here is my rough design for our Unique Dyslexic logo:



Which was transformed by a graphic artist into this:


This one will not use stick men but will have our logo in the middle and something about dyslexia and 1 in 10

 Some time ago I asked people who read my social media to send me positive words they would use to describe dyslexia. The words will be added to the outside circle of jig saw pieces. Our logo in the middle and something about putting the positives of dyslexia together......


 This one is another version of the jig saw idea.........

 Ok most people know that mind maps and dyslexia go together like milk and cookies for most dyslexics so we thought why not use a mind map idea for one of our logos

 
 
I think the last one speaks for itself


Please give us any feed back and let us know which you like. It will give us an idea which designs to move forward with.

So far we have had 13 contributions made to our crowd funding. Ok not exactly on target but the money contributed now will enable us to take our tee shirt logo designs to a professional graphic artist.

That's my work done for today

Please give us your feedback on the rough logo designs. Please contribute to our crowd funding campaign using the link provided above.
