"How do we change the narrative around dyslexia? Well, it’s about using what we do best: telling better stories. It’s about celebrating creativity, communication, empathy, problem-solving and resilience as forms of intelligence, because that is what they are. Most of all, we need to make sure that the next generation does not grow up feeling written off."

Check out this fantastic article in the Guardian from Space Scientist and Communicator, and Made By Dyslexia ambassador, Dame Dr Maggie Aderin.

What is the Science of Reading?
It isn’t a program, a trend, or a teaching style.

Brendan Fraser recently opened up on The Kelly Clarkson Show about being a father to an autistic child and his words landed powerfully.

A heartfelt call to treat neurodivergent families with compassion, support, and commitment.

He reminded the world that families with autistic loved ones deserve understanding, real services, and communities that show up for them, not just in theory, but in action.

As parents and advocates, we feel this deeply.
And voices like his help push the conversation forward in a way that’s human, honest, and needed.
