Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Both myself and Iain are running the London Marathon next year to raise money for the British Dyslexia Association.  My Jasmine has dyslexia, and she finds life so very hard, both inside and outside of school.  Dyslexia is a condition that effects every aspect of the suffers life, from their memory to the organisational skills and their communication skills.  It is a very common yet much misunderstood condition.  I want to spread the word that dyslexics are not stupid or slow, they simply have a different way of learning to the rest of us.  Thank you for reading my story!

About the charity

We are the largest UK charity that supports people with dyslexia & their families, teachers & employers. We aim to change society by breaking through the barriers and enabling everyone with dyslexia to be acknowledged, accepted and empowered.
