#AJobForEverybody - Dyslexia Scotland

#AJobForEverybody is a DYW campaign promoting and celebrating diversity and inclusion in the workplace.  

One of the aims of the campaign is to demonstrate that by working on skills development, attitude and approach to life, young people have it within their own control to affect their outcome, whatever their condition or barrier.

Dyslexia Scotland is a national organisation, based in Stirling that works to support and empower people with dyslexia to reach their full potential. 

​The Dyslexic Career Journeys video series highlights the life and work experiences of dyslexic Scots. ​We have shared a small selection of the series below but you can link through to the full series by clicking the button below.

Dyslexic Career Journeys

“At Dyslexia Scotland we have been working with DYW Forth Valley for a number of years now both within the school environment and virtually through signposting and connecting. This campaign is a great way to shout about the work of our combined efforts and to share resources out to a wider network of young people, their parents and their teachers. We hope that in sharing these resources, in particular the Dyslexic Careers Journeys Series, that young people with dyslexia will be inspired and optimistic for their futures."
