To celebrate International Dyslexia Week 2018 we are going to do a Leeds Dyslexia Festival 'Series'. Each day we will publish one of the main talks given at the festival.
Episode #7 CEO of The British Dyslexia Association (BDA) gives the opening address and tells the story of the BDA from 1972. One of the first dyslexia associations in the world. The UK has often been at the forefront of Dyslexia awareness with the BDA leading the way. These talks have universal appeal. The festival had 600 adults and 100 children attend. A mixture of parents and educators.
This is one of six talks:
1. Opening address from Helen Boden CEO of British Dyslexia Association
2. Address from Lynn Greenwold O.B.E., CEO of PATOSS
3. Keynote speaker; Professor Jonathan Glazzard
4. Dr Paula Clarke, Associate Professor.
5. Darius Namdaran, M.D. Mindmap Studio
6. Benedict Phillips, Artist and Consultant.
