Welcome to the Pembrokeshire Dyslexia Association
We are a local self help group based in Pembrokeshire. We aim to increase awareness in Pembrokeshire of the problems faced by children and adults who are dyslexic. We also aim to provide support and advice for the parents and families of dyslexic children and adults.
Next meeting
We have changed the format of our support meetings to be more of a social open evening to provide help through informal chats and interaction.
The next gathering is on Tuesday, 5th May 2009, 7.30pm at the Haverfordwest Cricket. Come along, have a chat, learn something new, get some help.
