Malta Dyslexia Association The Malta Dyslexia Association is a Voluntary Organisation (VO #1037) which was founded in 1985 by parents and professionals. President: Ms Carmen Muscat

The Dyslexia Association is a voluntary association which was founded in 1985 by parents and professionals who were concerned about those children who in spite of their intelligence and overall ability were struggling to develop literacy skills. This can lead to anti-social behaviour, bullying, illiteracy, depression and unemployment. For this reason the Dyslexia Association has been proactive in creating awareness of the condition so as to ease the position of such individuals. Over the years the Association has invited to Malta a number of foreign speakers to further develop awareness in the field. Furthermore, the Association has organised courses for parents to enable them to support children and other family members more effectively. Disclaimer:

As Dyslexia Week comes to an end, we want to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who followed and shared in our journey from 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.

Throughout the week, we’ve explored how small, practical changes can make a meaningful difference, whether at home, in school, or at work. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬 𝘮𝘢𝘺 𝘣𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰:

💡 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠. Continue building your understanding of dyslexia.
💬 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠. Share experiences and keep the conversation going.
🤝 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠. Look for ways to remove barriers and make everyday experiences more accessible.
🌱 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠. Look for the next opportunity to make a difference.

One small conversation can lead to one small action... and one small action can lead to so many positive changes. 𝑺𝒐 𝒍𝒆𝒕’𝒔 𝒕𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒘𝒆’𝒗𝒆 𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒏𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒌 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒚 𝒊𝒕 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅.

Dyslexia doesn’t stop when education ends. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐨.

Take the weekend to reflect on how you can make ONE workplace routine more inclusive and accessible when you return to the office on Monday.

Consider these three steps:

1️⃣ 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 💬
Use clear language, headings, bullet points and concise instructions across emails, documents, presentations, and more. Avoid the temptation to overdo it with unnecessarily lengthy texts, and consider integrating accessibility requirements into your AI prompts.

2️⃣ 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 📋
Where possible, give people adequate time to read, process and prepare for meetings, tasks or changes. 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘴 𝘣𝘰𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘶𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.

3️⃣ 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 🔀
Consider different ways of sharing information, processing tasks, working with partners or clients, and demonstrating knowledge or skills. Design projects and tasks to support collaboration and 𝘭𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘶𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘵𝘩𝘴.

💙 𝐃𝐲𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐚 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤 – 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟓: 𝘼𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙋𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 & 𝙁𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙨!

As parents, your voice can drive change.

Your action today? Let ONE observation spark ONE conversation - and advocate accordingly. We invite you to try these three simple steps:

1️⃣ 𝐎𝐛𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞👀
Take the time to observe your child engaging in an activity they tend to struggle with. Ask yourself:
• What specific aspect is my child finding difficult?
• What could we change to increase access and engagement?
• What support might they need?

2️⃣ 𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧👂
Talk to your child about what you have observed. Listen to their concerns, ask for their ideas, and validate their experiences. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦.

3️⃣ 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐮𝐩 📣
If something isn’t working, raise your concerns - and raise them early. Reach out to your child’s educators, the school INCO, Heads of School, or other professionals, as appropriate. Share what you are seeing, ask questions, and advocate for what your child needs in a constructive and collaborative way.

One observation can start a conversation.
One conversation can lead to change. 💙

Remember: Awareness is knowing. Action is 𝒂𝒅𝒗𝒐𝒄𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈.
