Newsletter August 2020
We are halfway through August and have already raised very close to half our total ! We are so grateful and so amazed by the generosity we are experiencing.
Walk and Talk the ‘dys’ out of Dyslexia
We had an article in the North Shore News August 1 and our podcasts are being published every Wednesday and Sunday in August. We have listeners from around the world, and the comments are all good.
The episodes are on Podbean and also our own YouTube Channel. Very soon we will be adding videos outlining what dyslexia is, the correction procedure and how it can be prevented.
Creative Dyslexia The Video
A group of Facilitators, led by Shelley McMeeken in New Zealand has launched a Kickstarter campaign for a video – Creative Dyslexia. There will be one version featuring Davis methods, and one version for general information on dyslexia. To visit the Creative Dyslexia Kickstarter campaign click here .
This truly is an exciting month for encouraging news!

Tristan and Sue have already started working on the second podcast series which will be focussing on the Davis Learning Strategies (DLS) – our Prevention objective. For example, Richard Whitehead of DDA UK is the author of a book entitled Why Tyrannosaurus But Not If? The Dyslexic Blueprint for the Future of Education, which is the perfect segueway for teachers who are aware of the DLS but need more information. I have copies here if anyone would like to buy one. Click here to contact me.
It’s been difficult to focus (surprise) with so much excitement in the past 2 weeks, so many new connections are being forged and there will be more news at the end of the month. For now, please do encourage your friends/family/work colleagues to go to our website and register for the sponsored walk – we are going to get to our $8,000 total – and we need you !

With deep gratitude we thank you for your support. Warm sun-filled wishes, your Board, Sue, Laura, Denny, Carole, Paddy, Nadine, Gisa and Tristan.
