Story

One of my boys has severe dyslexia (as well as other learning difficulties) and has found school hard - but at last we found a great school with specialist help, including great support from British Dyslexia Association. He has to persevere to overcome his learning difficulties, so it seems appropriate to take up a big challenge myself to help raise funds and awareness for a great charity. I'll will be working closely with his school in the run up (!) to the Marathon on 22nd April.

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.
