Or that Steve Jobs, whose innovation changed how people interact with technology (and other people) on a regular basis, was also Dyslexic? Imagine their genius and talent being shunned and going to waste simply because of their learning disability. Yet, only 3% of the public believe Dyslexia is a positive trait according to YouGov Research.
We are working hard to #Speak4Dyslexia, breaking the stigma and spreading awareness on their many strengths and abilities.
