💛 What if a dyslexic child never discovered how brilliant they really are?

Every day, dyslexic kids risk growing up believing they’re not clever enough. Not because they lack brilliance, but because the world doesn’t always recognise it.

We believe every child deserves to know what makes them brilliant.

That’s why Made By Dyslexia exists.

🌍 To change how the world understands dyslexia.
💡 To help children discover their unique strengths.
📚 To give parents and teachers the free tools to unlock their potential.

Because when a child understands their brilliance, it can change the way they see themselves — and what they believe is possible.

But we can’t do it alone.

Everything we create is free, so that every child, everywhere, can benefit. And we rely on donations to make that happen.

❤️ Will you help unlock a child’s brilliance?

Your donation will help us reach more children, change more perceptions and build a world that recognises what they can do — not just what they find difficult.

👉 Donate today. Help every dyslexic child discover their brilliance.

Orlando Bloom was diagnosed with dyslexia at age seven.
He faced severe difficulties with reading, spelling, writing speed, and public reading, which caused frustration and anxiety in school.
He learned cursive writing to help memorize dialogue, focused on understanding overall thoughts rather than literal text.
Studying at London’s Guildhall School of Music and Drama allowed his imagination to thrive, leading to breakout roles in The Lord of the Rings and Pirates of the Caribbean.
Orlando openly shares his story through organisations like the Child Mind Institute and MADE BY DYSLEXIA , encouraging children to view dyslexia as a creative gift rather than a limitation.
