Not being able to read is not something to be ashamed of, this stigma is sadly preventing many people reaching out to learn how to read, I say #EndTheStigma, and help those who can't read move forward in their reading skills, Thank You.

🗣 “I could feel my face warming up looking at this piece of paper, I tried to hide away”
Thomas has always struggled with reading and spelling.
He told @NickyAACampbell what happened when he went to cancel his gym membership, and they needed it in writing.
