Dyslexia Scotland is a national charity dedicated to empowering children, young people, and adults with dyslexia. In this spotlight, we explore the free services, advice, and community support they offer to help people with dyslexia — and those around them — thrive.

Dyslexia is a neurodevelopmental difference that affects how a person reads, writes, and processes language — but it does not affect intelligence. In this blog, we explore the signs of dyslexia, common myths, strengths, and the support strategies that can make a real difference.
