Many adults with dyslexia found out late, or still aren’t sure. Some were told at school they just needed to try harder. Others only started to wonder when their own child was assessed.

Join us for a relaxed fireside chat with clinical psychologist Dr Jenna Vyas-Lee about what dyslexia can look like in adult life. That might be the long email at work that takes three times as long as it should, or the instructions from a colleague that don’t quite stick. At home, it might be the form you keep meaning to fill in, or the thing you were sure you’d remember.

We’ll also talk about how dyslexia sometimes sits alongside other differences, such as ADHD or dyspraxia, and why that can be easy to miss.
