Regional launch events of the Dyslexia-SpLD Trust

Wednesday 4th November 2009

The Dyslexia-SpLD Trust has been formally launched at three Regional Roadshow events that took place in March 2009 in order to share and disseminate the results and findings of the ‘No to Failure’ project.

The 'No to Failure' project is a collaborative work between Dyslexia Action, The British Dyslexia Association, PATOSS and Xtraordinary People to demonstrate and communicate the impact and effectiveness of specialist teaching support given to pupils at risk of Dyslexia or other SpLD.

Funded by the DCSF (Department for Children, Schools and Families) the project is the largest of its kind in this country to date and has contributed to the founding of the new Dyslexia-SpLD Trust by members of the above organisations together with The Helen Arkell Centre.

The formation of the Dyslexia-SpLD Trust has come about as a result of the work completed by the project.
