Welcome to all my friends out there. Hope you are all doing away out there.
One of the achievements I am most proud of with Dyslexia Pathways CIC is this:
(CIC stands for Community Interest Company)
This means we're are a registered social enterprise and our social aim is to promote and
support the dyslexic and other neuro divergent communities. As with all
social enterprises we are not for profit.
support the dyslexic and other neuro divergent communities. As with all

This quote is from an Erasmus academic paper that mentions my organisation Dyslexia Pathways CIC:
"There are numerous CICS who have succeeded in providing an intermediation function developing pathways that assist individuals with disabilities to access support to engage in academic courses and vocational qualifications.
These include Dyslexia Pathways CIC, All Inclusive Disability Consultants CIC and Acute Need CIC who have all led the way for social inclusion for those within the disabled community looking to access support to enhance and develop their skillset.
There continues to remain an urgent need for person centered planning rather than relying on generic mechanism for all types of learning disabilities. There is substantial disparity in how these individuals are treated i.e. only 15 % of adults with autism are in paid employment compared to 48% of people with general disabilities (Higgins, 2009)." One in five dyslexics are unemployed."
The message is social enterprise and social model of dyslexia is new and innovative way forward for the dyslexic community.
