📢📢📢Sharing this message from a lovely lady who will be attending a future coffee morning with us 😊 For anyone who wants some advice/guidance/support in regards to dyslexia this could be a very helpful local service.
Hello, I'm Natalie, a dyslexia specialist based in Pocklington. I run Yorkshire Wolds Dyslexia Service.
I wanted to share some free ideas for parents whose children find reading or spelling difficult.
One simple starting point: keep enjoying stories together. Reading aloud or listening to an audiobook lets your child enjoy the story while working on their own reading skills. Let them choose something that interests them.
I've put practical ideas and questions to ask school here:

I also offer individual reading and spelling support for children aged 7–16 locally. You're welcome to follow the Yorkshire Wolds Dyslexia Service Page for more practical ideas.
What literacy is and why it matters: reading, writing, speaking and listening underpin almost all learning at school and in everyday life.
