Story
Lorna and I work together as Special Educational Need Consultants so in our work we see lots of children that could benefit from the exceptional help offered by this fantastic charity. We want to do what we can to help.
We are not natural runners, a half marathon is a massive challenge for both of us. Please give as generously as you can to encourage us with our rather gruelling training plan which is well under way and to encourage us over the finish line in October!
The Helen Arkell Dyslexia Charity leads the way in providing
specialist support to children, young people and adults with dyslexia
and other Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLDs). Their mission is to
help people: 1. Believe in themselves 2. Achieve their goals and 3.
Succeed on their own terms. There is no government funding for dyslexia,
despite its lifelong impact. Fundraising is vital to ensure in-depth
assessment and tuition is available to anyone with dyslexia, including
lower income families and schools in disadvantaged areas. Thank you.
