British Dyslexia Association: DAW 2024 “What’s Your Story?”
Dyslexia Awareness Week 2024 (DAW24) will take place from 7th – 13th October inclusive. This year’s theme is “What’s Your Story?” It has three key messages and one call to action:
Every story is different – showcasing the diversity of the dyslexic community and highlighting that everyone’s experience of dyslexia is unique. 10% of the population are dyslexic – that’s over 6.7 million stories to tell.
A strong opening sets the scene – raising awareness of the importance of early identification and intervention to ensure that every person with dyslexia can flourish.
It’s never too late to change your story – highlighting how the BDA can provide support and signposting to help dyslexic people begin a new chapter.
The British Dyslexia Association is encouraging as many people as possible to get involved. At HWDA we will be sharing inspirational stories of our students and their families on our website but you can share your story directly by following the link to the BDA below:
