In 2016/17 Dyslexia Pathways CIC is working in partnership with Healthy Working Lives Fife to deliver four half day dyslexia and neuro difference awareness training sessions in Fife. This training is suitable for businesses, organisations, individuals or anyone with an interest in finding out more about dyslexia and neuro difference.

The training sessions will each last three hours and will be held on: May 20th, June 17th, July 22nd   and September 19th, at Voluntary Action, Flemington Road, Glenrothes.
