Dyslexia Awareness Week 

In November Somerset College contacted us about having a table in their college for Dyslexia Awareness Week.
The SDA we were delighted. We set up a table in reception with info about dyslexia and The Somerset Dyslexia Association.
Many students and tutors asked questions and we were able to point them in the right directions.
We asked the art & design students at Somerset College if they could design a poster
to put up around the college with a small prize for the winners.
We thought that the standard of the posters were extremely high and 3 winners were chosen.
The college matched our prize money given.

Here are the names of the winners
