Anyhoo, it's in aid of a fantastic cause - the Helen Arkell Dyslexia Centre in Farnham (<a href="http://www.arkellcentre.org.uk/index.htm">http://www.arkellcentre.org.uk/index.htm</a>) The centre helps both learners and educators to develop ways of dealing with the challenges of dyslexia and does not receive any local or national government funding.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Tahoma&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;;">It would be awesome if you would be kind enough to make a donation to this fantastic cause.
