Dyslexia shows up differently for everyone. It’s not just about reading and writing - it can also affect other areas such as memory, organisation, communication, time-keeping, and concentration. How does it show up for you? And were there any signs or challenges you did not expect? Let us know below 👇 #DidYouKnow #DyslexiaFacts #DyslexiaSupport
