IMPORTANT UPDATE: due to unforeseen circumstances, the Dyslexia Awards ceremony planned for September 2025 has been postponed to 2026.

We apologise for this change but are excited that the postponement means our next awards will coincide with our 10th anniversary – allowing us to create an even more special celebration for those joining us from across the UK.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
