Western Isles work

Hannah Gillies from Western Isles Council (Comhairle nan Eilean Siar) reports, “I am helping a person who has dyslexia work on numeracy and communication. I gave them an overlay to help with their reading. I am also taking part in online training. The overlay helps a young learner I work with to read. By doing the training I will have a better knowledge of how to support people with dyslexia.”
